Low oil pressure? Is it low or just me?
I have a 94' Chaparral w/ a Mercruiser V8 I/O.. I have noticed recently that
after driving the boat a while (tubing, skiing, cruising) and then i put the boat in idle the oil pressure is around 20, but then when i start up and run it again it's back up to 40. Now I know the oil thins when it heats to cause the lower pressure, but is 20 too low? and is 40 good while running hard? Oil level and check is ok, and i beleive i have straigh 40 weight in it. Any info is appreciated!!! |
