4637, oil psi
Posted by klipzracer, Jul-05-01 04:45 AM
i was kinda wondering what's our average oil psi at the following for those of you who have oil pressure guages.

idle-20 to 25psi
cruising(3,000rpm)-40 to 50psi
6,500rpm to redline(7,200rpm)- 80 to 90psi

does this sound good. i also got the ol' leaking head gasket syndrome. could that cause pressure drop? and how about performance drop? car seems a lil sluggish lately.

Yup, my oil pressure readings are very similar to what yours are; you should be OK.

What gauge do you guys use?

I was thinkning of an autometer, but everyone with a 4G63 says they max them out all the time..????

Thanks!
