Re: safe oil pressure? (nlc)
If it used to be one pressure most of the time (average) and now it isn't this is a good indication your bearings might be going.
My pressure was very low in my last motor once I got a oil guage, it was barely 10psi at idle, barely 50psi @3000rpms. These are the Helms limits, if its near them, that may mean a bearing is going.
My #4 rod bearing was fucked bad when we pulled the motor apart. I'm glad I did before the whole thing siezed on me.
