Tamora oil pressure

[allanb]

Can someone give me some idea of the oil pressure the digital display should give me in the tamora at tick over? (when the engine is hot or cold)

Cheers

Agree with Zippee for the hot temp pressure but mine cold is 50-60psi.

IIRC engine speed and oil grade also influence the readings.

With Mobil 1 fully synth

Cold 60 approx 4 bar @750rpm
Hot 18-20 approx 1.4bar @850

FYI above 2200 rpm hot (50*c) 60psi 4 bar

Now you mention it, 50-60 is right. It was 45 in my old Chimaera.
