Oil pressure at idle
Posted to Technical Discussion Forum on 2/13/2010 8 Replies

Shopkey gives an oil pressure spec of 40-60 psi hot at 3000 rpm. At 43 hot, this engine makes spec. However, the complaint is OP light coming on at idle. The idle oil pressure gets down to 15psi once the engine is nice and hot.
