3.8 oil pressure
Hello,
My '01 3.8 has a burnt exhaust valve, 170,000 miles. I get 70 lbs oil pressure at idle. I want to find a low mileage replacement. There is one online, same engine, with 70,000 something miles, but in a photo of the dash with the engine on it shows oil pressure around 45 lbs. Is there a wide variation in "normal" oil pressure or is this an indication of wear?
