the middle or higher, but not all the way. read when engine is warm and running. if it gets low, please check the oil, no oil will crack your engine, then you have to go car shopping. too high is not good either. go to jiffy lube, change oil and filter if youre unsure. cheap

1998 dodge durango check gauges what does this mean?

It means look at your gauges. Something is wrong! Does your temperature gauge show that it is overheating? Is the oil presure where it should be? Check your fluids.


Where is the temperature shut off switch for a asplundh wood chipper?

this chipper has a Muphry switch system . If it is working and not buypassed, you should have to push a small button to start it. If this is the case,the oil and temp guage should have an adjustable needle on their face. these needles are adjustable with a small alen wrench. adj the temp guage two thirds of the way up or less, this will shut the engine down when the non adjustable needle reaches the adjustable needle, to prevent engine over heat. the oil gauge works opposite, set it two 5psi. this will shut the engine down if oil presure drops too low.

Why is your oil pressure gauge going haywire in your 2003 silverado?

AnswerWhat do you mean by haywire? Without more information, all I can tell you to do right now is to replace the filter you are using with an AC/Delco filter. The oil pressure sending unit may be defective if you are getting erratic readings. I mean that the water temp gauge needle goes way past the point to where it bottoms out and so does the battery volt gauge needle and the oil pressure gauge needle and the tach needle works when it wants to.

Can you use 27 gauge needle for testosterone?

Yes, I do so weekly. Use a 22 or 23 gauge needle to draw the test, then switch to the 27 gauge 1.25 inch needle. I heart the loaded syringe on a heating pad for about 10 minutes to loosen up the oil, then inject. Much less pain than a larger needle.


The oil pressure gauge shows 0 psi What can the problem be?

What should the oil temperature read on a peugeot 406 hdi 2003?

To the best of my knowledge the 406 does not have an oil temperature gauge, what it does have is an oil level gauge. This system samples the oil level when the ignition is first turned on and displays it for 30 seconds or so when the engine is started. When active the lights behind the needle also come on. At the end of this period the lights go out and the needle drops to the "off" position. It does not monitor the oil level continuously as the oil level in the sump falls when the engine is running due to the amount of oil pumped into the upper reaches of the engine. Hope this helps.


Is the oil pressure gauge on a 1996 S10 electrical or mechanical?
