SyntheticBlinkerFluid Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 I just got done putting the water pump, timing belts, and the covers back on and it started up right away and ran awesome. The only problem now is breaking the clutch loose. Question on the oil pressure, what is a good pressure to be running at idle? The gauge reads probably 20 psi (can't really tell since it goes 0-45-85) I just wanted to know, I'm probably going to replace the sender.

Cougar Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 That sounds like good pressure to me, especially if you get over 40 while driving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just above zero is still acceptable (according to the car's manual). You should be running around 45psi with the engine warmed up and turning over 3000 RPM. -=RUss=- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SyntheticBlinkerFluid Posted December 12, 2005 Author Share Posted December 12, 2005 Actually while I putzed around in if for a little while it seemed to be about 45psi while I was driving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
