Oil Pressure M35A2 Standard Reading

[mxcobra]

I have done a little searching .. But seem to find answers are all over the place.

I just replaced both my Oil Sending Unit & Gauge .. I was getting nothing out of my old gauge ( it was a 120 PSI setup )

I replaced it with a 60PSI sender & 60 PSI gauge. Now when i first start the truck, it shows no pressure for about 8 seconds. Then it
jumps to about 59PSI. But it stays solid @ that point. Even once the truck is warmed up.. I was thinking I would see a range of 30PSI to about 50PSI
depending on engine RPM..

The motor is a hercules multi fuel engine 465 , in a 1974 M35A2

The truck runs perfect other then this.

Thanks

Your fine.

All engines are different, that's why the threads are all over the place.

As long as you have 10 psi at idle, your fine(from the TM).
