2004 Nissan Titan oil gauge high?
oil gage pressure immediately goes high
Is the oil pressure gauge on a 1991 Mercedes 190E supposed to be pegged at 3 instead of in the middle of the gauge at 1.5?
i have a 1993 190E - my oil pressure gauge always sits on 3. ==New Answer Haedline == The oil pressure gauge actually moves but is related to several factors Engine Temprature Oil viscosity Engine speed. When you start you car the engine temperature is low the gauge goes to 3, after a long drive/travel and if your temp gets to 80C then with an engine speed of 750-800 RPM you oil pressure gauge will read about 1.5. if you rev. the engine the pressure gauge goes up to 3
How do you check the oil pressure on a 1997 town?
You would need a gauge that taps into where sender goes on block.
Why does the oil light come on the oil gauge drops then the light goes off and the gauge works again in your 2001 expedition?
If you are talking about at startup, this is normal. If you are talking about after startup, then either you are low of oil, defective or incorrect filter, have a defective oil pump, oil sending unit, or bad gage.
What is the function of the oil gauge in a car?
The oil gauge shows the oil's temperature. The oil pressure gauge monitors the oil pressure for your viewing pleasure.
1999 dodge 1500 van and the oil presure gauge drops to zero when im driving and goes back up and after you change oil it does not reoccur for months?
Hopefully (for you) just a bad oil pressure sending unit Install a manual gauge to actually check the vehicle's oil pressure
What happens when a timing chain cover gasket goes bad?
it leaks oil
What happens if you accidentally pour antifreeze where your engine oil goes?
you have a big problem
Why when truck warms up oil pressure goes down and to zero at idle but good pressure when cold?
If you have the correct weight oil in the engine, it sounds like the engine may be worn. If you haven't checked the oil pressure with a manual gauge (vs the dash gauge) that is a good place to start to verify that it is not a gauge/sensor problem.
I have a Chevy Silverado 2002. What if the oil gauge goes up and then down makes a ticking sound when starting the engine?
Waht is the answer?
Why does my 95 Cougar's 4.6L oil pressure gauge fluctuate with the throttle?
Your oil pressure goes up with more throttle (higher rpm) and there is less pressure say at idle. Therefore your gauge reading will vary according to the throttle/rpm.
Why does a Chevy 350 oil pressure gauge bounce now and then?
A mechanical oil gauge may bounce if you are low on oil. An electric oil gauge may bounce if the sending unit or the gauge itself is faulty and of course you are low on oil.
