RE: [DML] Oil Pressure Weirdness

["Scott McMullan" <mcmullas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I wish I could give you real answers to these questions, but... I haven't
changed the sending unit and the P.O. didn't mention it in the list of work
he had done to the car (I've had it for almost a year), and I left the
choice of oil weight up to the shop where I had it changed.  I can hear a
chorus of *gasp*'s from the readers out there (I didn't change my own oil...
what a scandal), but the fact is I was having the state inspection done, the
oil change was overdue, and my life has been so busy lately that I often
need to make choices that free up my time.

OK, so I've spent some time looking at back posts to the list and haven't
seen my problem (coulda missed it, but it's clear this isn't TOO common a
question anyway).

When I fire up my car, the oil pressure behaves what I believe is pretty
normally.  At idle, the pressure is around 40, anything over idle, and it
hovers around 70 (my gauges are metric so the numbers are actually like 2.6
and 5, but I digress).
