low oil pressure? help please
hi guys n gals
need some advice,
my oil pressure gauge is reading 50psi when on throttle. when idling it drops to around 15-20psi,
now i know it should be more than this so i inspected further, ive tested with a manual guage on to where my sender unit is an im still getting around the same figures.
where shal i go from here?
and how safe am i driving the car?
cheers

I'm guess you tee'd you oil press gauge and oil feed line together right?
If so, seperate them and the oil psi will go up. The feed line causes a false reading on the oil psi gauge.
I have answered this question many times, you would have found by searching.
