oil pressure
What does your oil pressure gauage show at idle and at driving speed after it is warmed up.
I run 5-40 oil And I just want to compare to make sure the new-to-me car is normal. Thanks Kyle

I think mine sits between 2 and 3. I'll check again the next time I drive it.

Here are my observations (corrected for the fact my gauge is off by about .5 bar due to a badly executed gauge face replacement by the PO).
Mobil 0W40 (I am going to 5 W50 next) Cold @Idle 4.5 bar @ 2,800 rpm cold 4.7 bar At operating temp @ 2,800 rpm 3.5 bar @ idle 1.4 bar Most of the time running around town it is in the same range Dennis indicated.
