Quick Oil Pressure ?
Just got an 03 RCSB Silverrado z71. 5.3
I've had my 2000 SS camaro for a while.. its oil pressure used to be right at 40 at idle.. and 60 ish around WOT.
With this truck my oil pressure at idle drops all the way down to 30-35 at idle... with 10w30 and it pegs 80 under WOT. Normal cruising at 1900-2k rpms is 50-55.
Normal? Should I be worried?
