May be time to replace oil pump.....also, pickup screen may have quite a bit of garbage in it....

Out of alldata.com spec on engine oil pressure is:

20-45 psi at 1500 rpm engine hot.




An ounce of prevention provides a pound of cure!

Ok, thats more like it, when my temp is higher than 180 i usually run around 37.5ish but when im under 180 under normal operating temp due to tstat..im usually upwards of 50.

Just wondering b/c I think when we "T"'d the sending unit when making a feed for the turbo, I dont think it is getting a proper reading now...only at idle is just under 12 like i said b4 and normal and wto is at 25ish...but when cold it is around 25 off as well, but I never lose oil pressure, it remains constant...so most likely messed up sending unit...Thank you for your help and feedback, just making sure my deduction was correct.

My block only had 500 miles on the motor when i did the 3 liter..it was very clean.


so im not sure what else...oh mines a hybrid..possibly pluging the 3 oil passages caused me to run higher psi?? seems normal to me.
