If you keep driving your vehicle with

Engine Oil Pressure Gage
This gage tells you if there could be a
problem with your engine oil pressure.
The engine oil pressure gage shows the
engine oil pressure in psi (pounds per
square inch)
in the U.S., or kPa
(kilopascals) in Canada, when the engine
is running. Oil pressure should be
20 to
80 psi (140 to 550 kPa). It may vary with
engine speed, outside temperature and
oil viscosity, but readings above the red
area show the normal operating range.
Readings in the red area tell you that the
engine is low on oil, or that you might
have some other
oil problem. See “Engine
Oil”
in the Index.
~~~
NOTICE:
Damage to your engine from
neglected oil problems can be costly
and is not covered by your warranty.
