Post your warm oil pressures
Just installed my gauge and I'm wondering if it's not reading correctly, given my results.
Idle: 19-21psi 2,000: 30psi 4,000+ just sticks at 41 (occasionally changes), which is why I think there's something wrong. Well, there IS something wrong, if it's just sticking at 41. Any advise, or is this normal (which I doubt)? EDIT: Even though my old oil pressure connector thing isn't hooked up to anything, it's still a bit more than halfway up my gauge. WTF? |
idle 30psi warm - 20 psi hot
3000+ 60 psi warm - 50-55 psi hot |

What sort of gauge are you using that is "sticking" at 41psi?? Have you checked your car with a know good mechanical gauge? |

Try cleaning off any electrical connections that maybe dirty at the sensor. |
