oil pressure question
where exactly does everybodys oil pressure sit on a fully warmed up car?? does it vary on synthetic and regular oil (5w-30)?
mine when warm and the temp is around 200 sits below the 20 and just above the red line say between the 20 and red.......its been like that since i bouught the car and has no problem
a few ppl say that their car does that but some kid that supposedly knows somthig about cars says it shouldnt go much below 40....thanks

i did a search...seems that this happens to alot of ppl....not really a problem i would say
well i use 5w-30 syntec oil which and i know with synthetic and lower viscosity oils presure would be lowered....
i dont c it as a problem or concern ...i just wanted to know if it was or wasnt...
