after driving for 30-45+ minutes, if I idle at a light or any time, the oil pressure is pretty low.
at cold my idle is about 1000rpms after the most recent adjustments, and 1200 at fully warmed up... but at 1200 and warm the oil pressure is sometimes dropping to 10ish, almost where the light would start getting a flicker... if the rpms are above this, even a little, then I have a solid 25+, and 40psi at 3500 rpms. should I worry about this? running 40w VR-1 oil... fwiw |
