how mutch psi should my oil pressure be at idle?

 

What motor?

My C1 is at like 10 psi or so...

 

Depends on the running temperature. When I first turn my car on, it hits about 80 psi. After fully warm, it drops to a minimum of 12 psi. That is with my B18C1.

 

my motor is a b16a its in a 1990 teg

 

what should the max be?

 

while driving, mine is at about 80 and when at idle, about 18. I think max would be be at about 85.

 

thanks for the info

 

Wow, I put a brand new pump on mine and I think the most I hit is like 55 or 60. :thinking:

 

It may just be my shitty Autometer guage....

I did replace my rings this weekend and now the pressure at idle when cold is about 40 psi and the pressure at idle when hot around 10 psi. I don't think this is right. Maybe I jerked the oil line to the gauge when I was down there.

 

may be u did mine is at 70 when cold and falls to about 17 when hot
well now i got some other problems i think i'll post it on a new topic
its realy hard and expensive gettin parts on this island
