I'm Awesome
My oil gauge is moving around a bit more than usual. I’ve had some other problems, and can’t be too sure if I’m not just paying more attention to it now or what. I previously blew a gasket in the oil filter adapted and lost all oil pressure, and upgraded to Tahoe 120MPH gauges.
Seems like I’m getting more pressure than normal on cold starts, a consistent 65-70 on startup until warm, and then between 40-60 when it’s warmed up. It’ll drop to 40 at idle, then peg to 60 once I get moving until I have to stop at a light.
What am I looking at here? I read in another post somewhere about someone looking toward a rebuilt because his oil pressure is doing the same thing. Is my pump just tired and needing to be replaced? Is it going to be as fun as I think it’ll be to fix this now?
