Oil Pressure Question

#1 Post by roverdevin » Tue Aug 22, 2006 5:13 pm

I've just installed an oil pressure guage in my land rover after years of never really being sure, and get a reading of 30psi at idle and 60+psi at speed. Does this sound within reason for a 2.25 engine? thats with the engine fairly cool.

Those numbers sound fine. Spec is 35-65lbs @ 2000rpm when warm.
