I also have one doing the very same thing, if I hit the top of the dash real hard(like the old TVs) it will return to normal. It seems to happen more often when it's very hot out. I may pull my instrument cluster off to see if something is shorting out. It's a very intermittent and aggravating problem.

What are the manifold gauges set on when a 2000 ford windstar is full of freon?

Your high and low pressure readings will be directly affected by the ambient air temperature and humidity. At 60 degrees (Fahrenheit), you should be looking right about at 58 psig. At 100 (Fahrenheit), you'd be looking at something closer to 125 psig.

How does an oil pressure gauge works?

Most oil pressure gauges operate by a varying voltage. The oil pressure changes the resistance in the oil sensor, causing the gauge to change readings.
