Oil pressure gauge reads zero after starting the engine then in a couple of minutes goes up a little then jumps to normal and stays there?
Oil pressure has to built up. As long as the pressure is normal and the oil level is good. There is no problem.
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
Oil pressure stays on 80 on 2005 tahoeTurn truck off and it goes to 0.Turn ignition on but not starting the truck it goes to 40.Turn the ignition to start truck it stays on 80.What's the problem?

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 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.
2004 Nissan Titan oil gauge high?
oil gage pressure immediately goes high
How do you check the oil pressure on a 1997 town?
You would need a gauge that taps into where sender goes on block.
What is wrong when your temperature gauge goes up in a car?
Your car is starting to overheat or your thermostat is going out. Get it checked.
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 would the oil pressure gauge register in the red zone?
Hey Sim==If it does it only while the engine is running, the sending unit could be inacurate. You need to install a manual gauge to see what the actual reading is. If it goes to red before starting the engine the wire to the sending unit is probably disconnected. Good luckJoe
When you turn the key to on the oil pressure gauge goes to high and stay there?
If the oil pressure gauge pegs to high when you turn the key to the "on" position, it could indicate a malfunction in the gauge itself, a wiring issue, or a problem with the oil pressure sending unit. It's also possible that there is an actual oil pressure issue, but this is less common when the engine is not running. To diagnose the problem, check the wiring and connections, and consider having the oil pressure tested manually with a mechanical gauge for accuracy. If the issue persists, consulting a professional mechanic is advisable.
