Why does the engine gauge say low oil pressure and oil smells like gas even when oil is full?
The first thing I would check is for a leaking fuel injector, if your vehicle is equiped with them. Best time to check is after vehicle sits for long period, usually overnight. You will have to pull sparkplugs, and insert some type of small cord in cyl. check cord for gas smell or liquid residue.

What should your Oil pressure be on your 5.7 93 sub?
The exact number isn't as important as how much the pressure gauge fluctuates. Watch the gauge when the engine is first started. It should go up somewhere near the middle. That's the point at which the pressure bypass engages. Then watch the oil pressure after the engine warms up. If the oil pressure drops significantly AT AN IDLE when the engine is warm, you have worn main and/or rod bearings... but WORN doesn't mean WORN OUT. If the engine is still able to maintain oil pressure, even though it drops a little when warm, you can raise the oil pressure by changing to a heavier (thicker) grade oil. If you've been using 5W15, change to 10W30 or even 15W40. You'll be surprised at how much of a difference that can make.
Toyota sequoia oil pressure gauge reads below zero n does not move to the zero mark or above when ignition turned on even with engine running is this normal or is gauge failed?
I had this happen on my 2003 Sequoia while under warranty. I was a defective gauge and required replacement. Type your answer here...
2003 Volvo S 60 Oil pressure gauge reads low but is oil is full then car shuts off it will restart but shuts off again after a few seconds?
DON'T START THE ENGINE! There is a reason there is no oil pressure. The oil pump may be broken and not be siphoning the oil from the pan and the engine is getting no lubrication. There could even be damage to your crankshaft bearings or to the valvetrain, which can cause excess oil clearances and low oil pressure. If there is something internally wrong with your engine, then even cranking it can destroy it. Have the car towed to a reputable garage that does internal engine repair.
How much pressure does the atmosphere exert on a gauge line under deep vacuum?
In a deep vacuum, the atmospheric pressure is significantly reduced, often approaching zero. However, the pressure exerted by the atmosphere on a gauge line can be considered as the external atmospheric pressure acting on the gauge, typically around 101.3 kPa (or 14.7 psi) at sea level. Therefore, even in a deep vacuum, the gauge line experiences atmospheric pressure on its exterior, while the pressure inside the line remains much lower. The gauge reflects the difference between these pressures, indicating a vacuum level.
What is the function of the adjusting screw in the Bourdon gauge?
Bourdon gauge is a type of aneroid pressure gauge consisting of a flattened curved tube attached to a pointer that moves around a dial. As the pressure in the tube increases, the tube tends to straighten and the pointer indicates the applied pressure.
Why is the gauge stays on cold and does not move up even the engine has sufficiently warmed up?
The temp sending unit or gauge is bad, probably the sending unit.
1989 Mazda RX7 has HIGH oil pressure at idle and goes even higher off the stock gauge when driving Also is blowing lots of burnt oil smoke when idling?
Sounds like you are getting engine compression in to your oil jacket.
Why 1996 2500 Chevy truck is not getting gas to throttle body there is gas in the fuel rail?
You need to first check the fuel pressure with a gauge. It MUST have 60 to 66 LBS. of fuel pressure to run. IT CAN'T BE ANY LOWER ARE HIGHER NOT EVEN A POUND EITHER WAY Are you will have problems. See if it has 59 LBS. then there will be fuel in the fuel rail but it still won't run. Ant time you have a problem with a fuel injected engine check fuel pressure FIRST with a gauge.
Your 1998 528i climate control fan wll not shut off even with the car engine shut down How do you shut it off?
You turn the fan on low and change the pressure volt and gauge on the left screen. Make sure you brush your teeth. BooYah
What is the problem if the air conditioning in a car smells bad?
It could be a dead animal somewhere in the engine compartment. May have even possibly gotten into the A/C hoses.
Why does the temp gauge read low when the motor is warm and the thermostat is open?
The thermostat is probably stuck open, even when the engine is cold.
Why pressure inside of cylinder must equal to pressure outside?
For an engine to work efficiently, the pressure inside the cylinder must be equal to the pressure outside to allow for proper combustion and expansion of gases. This ensures that the engine can generate the necessary power to move and operate effectively. Any difference in pressure between the inside and outside of the cylinder can lead to issues such as poor performance, engine knock, or even damage to the engine.
