98 ZJ Oil Pressure
 
Never really gets to a solid 40 psi. What to check? I'm guessing
sending unit first. Anything else?
TIA

Re: 98 ZJ Oil Pressure
 
Before you start replacing any parts temporarily install a mechanical gauge
and see what the real pressure is.

Re: 98 ZJ Oil Pressure
 
I second that, most gauges other than mechanical are not accurate. Ford
gauges on pick ups for example do not really read pressure they are an idiot
gauge and make you feel like you are seeing pressure. Ford's decision was
truly a monetary one and they have been doing it for over 20 years. Call me
---- but I have installed mechanicals in every vehicle I own.

Thanks, I just got my lazy ass to read through all the archived msgs re:
oil pressure. Will be checking sending unit and then "real" pressure.
And I *am* getting more than 10psi per 1K of rpm.
