    Oil Pressure - 2.25 Ltr Engine

    What should one expect for oil pressure at idle and at speed?

      I second what he said^^^^^. I use a 15w40. In the winter, I use 10w30. Running the 10w30 in warmer weather, causes the idle pressure to go to about 5-10 psi.

          Warm (but with an oil cooler) 25-30 at idle. At speeds over 2000 rpm 60 running 20W-50 summer 10W-30 in the winter.

            Right around 20 at idle, 50 or a little better at driving RPMs. 20W-50 all the time.
