Min should be 6 psi at curb idle.

30-80 psi @ 3000 rpm

DO NOT RUN ENGINE if pressure is at zero when idling!

Subject: DML: Oil pressure highs and lows

I changed my oil this weekend and now my oil pressure
is moving all over the place. Low idle teh pressure is
between 0 and 40. The pressure is between 40 and the
high end with the RPMs up. I never notice this
happening before this weekend. I went from a 10w30
syth blend with a FRAM filter to a 5w30 pure syth with
a Purolator Pure One filter. Checked the oil level
and its OK. Should I be worried?
