Depending on vehicle and engine approx. 20- 50 lbs. at hot idle (700 rpm)
Oil level and oil pressure are different. You don't need to have full oil to get normal pressure.
When the engine is cold it will have a higher oil pressure than when it is at full operating temperature. The normal pressure also varies from one make & model vehicle to another. A Ford may not have the same pressure as a Toyota. 40 psi is about normal for most engines.
normal oil pressure is 48 to 60
what is the normal oil pressure on a 1987 corvette when standing still
An oil pressure reading of 128 psi on a 2002 Corvette is unusually high, as typical oil pressure for this vehicle should generally range between 20 to 60 psi when the engine is at normal operating temperature. High oil pressure can indicate potential issues such as a clogged oil filter, faulty oil pressure sensor, or excessive oil viscosity. It's advisable to check the oil level and quality, and consider having the vehicle inspected by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue accurately.
Normal oil pressure when an engine is idle typically ranges from 20 to 30 psi (pounds per square inch) for most vehicles. However, this can vary depending on the specific make and model of the engine, as well as the oil viscosity used. It's important to refer to the vehicle's owner manual for the manufacturer's recommended oil pressure specifications. Low oil pressure at idle may indicate potential issues, such as low oil levels or a failing oil pump.
Don't know what vehicle and or engine you have but some idle with normal oil pressure of 8 psi or less.
Some vehicles` oil pressure will do this when at an idle. This is normal, if the oil pressure does not get higher when at higher rpms then something may be wrong.
A low oil pressure reading when idling for a 1986 Fiero is normal. As long as the oil pressure goes back to normal when the car is being driven, there should be no problem. If it is not, then the oil pressure sensor or the oil sending unit should be looked at.
Normal oil pressure at idle would be about 30 psi. Minimum would be about 10.
Normal oil pressure for a 2007 GMC Yukon typically ranges between 20 to 60 PSI when the engine is at operating temperature. At idle, oil pressure may drop to around 20 PSI, but it should rise to approximately 40-60 PSI during acceleration. If the oil pressure gauge consistently reads outside this range, it may indicate a problem that requires attention. Always refer to the owner’s manual for specific details regarding your vehicle's oil pressure specifications.
No, it is not normal. The oil pressure sender unit screws out. Purchase a new one and you will see how it is removed.
