Oil Pressure?
I orginally posted this in the wrong forum so I am posting here.

I am just wondering what Oil Pressure should be on a VQ30 and a VQ35 does it range from Idle to WOT?

Thanks!

JP

According to the 95 FSM-

Oil pressure at Idle- More tha 10psi
At 3000 rpm- 63.1psi-79.9psi

According to the 2002 FSM-

Oil Pressure at Idle- More than 14psi
at 2000 rpm (yes, 2k)- 43psi

Thank you! So does that mean @ redline readings would be double that?

depending on oil temp and rpm it can range from 10psi up too 100 psi. The idiot light comes on below 7 psi iirc.

Absolutely not. Oil pressure relative to RPM is not linear.
