Title: Oil pressure guages...... Post by: Lee.C on August 31, 2008, 23:09:28 pm Just a quick question guys..... What oil pressure guages do you use ???
You see I have a 70psi and a 150psi and I am wondering which one to use :-\ The 70psi guage reads in 10psi intervals, The 150psi guages reads in 15psi intervals until it gets to 90 and tops out at 150 with a couple of marks inbetween - which would you use ??? :) Title: Re: Oil pressure guages......

Post by: Fastbrit on September 01, 2008, 08:58:54 am The 70psi will go off the scale when you start your engine from cold and if the engine is built right, you'll see approx 10psi for every 1000rpm – but I agree, the 150psi one is a bit inaccurate, if that actually matters.
