what is considered 'normal' oil pressure on s6 engines?

[huddscerbie]

mines about 70-80 at idle when cold

10 when fully warmed at idle and about 40 at 4k revs.


is this what others would consider 'normal' ?

[Far Eastender]

I'm the same as you.

[sideways mostly]

Sounds about right

my t350 idles at around 18-20psi when warm but it does idle high at about 1300 rpm and about 50psi at 4k revs

If worried about pressure remove the oil switch from the braided pipe and fit a wet gauge to check . Do this when fully warmed up with both engine fans cutting in.At the end of the switch is a hole with some cilican in,dig it out and you can ajust pressure to what ever you want .Not that this was done at the factory much !!!!!!.Also a quick way to inprove oil pressure on a tired engine
