I don't know if anyone else has had this problem but, for a while the oil pressure has been on the low side but still good.
Today if i dropped the idle down to 600 at a light or stop sign, the oil pressure went to 0... Scarred me a bit, i kept it above 1000 rpms and at 25 psi and got her home.
I swapped out cars and bought a new sending unit. Now on start up it's back to 75psi cold and 40 or so at idle warm, if I blip the throttle its back to 75...
Like i said the oil pressure has been off compared to my red truck for a while. Now all is good!:elefant: :elefant:
For a moment I thought I was going to have to use some of my 2nd quarter bonus to fatten Tony's pockets... Guess that will have to wait.:aetsch:
Hope this helps someone out.
