[QUOTE="piggy, post: 498638, member: 13218"] Hi guys Just finished fitting a recon engine after the previous one failed after a mile due to a nipped up bearing and as I was very concerned about oil pressure I have fitted a VDO oil pressure gauge as well as the existing warnign light. So when I start the engine up it will rise to 25psi then on revving will increase to 35-38psi. However, once hot (after idling for about 10minutes the oil pressure drops off to around 10-15psi at idle (900rpm). This seems really low to me..... Is this normal?? Thanks in advance James [/QUOTE]
