Try doing a timing belt on a Toyota Landcruiser or a Nissan Xterra. You'll sing a different tune. :D

This is true, mine reads 40-45 cold and 0 warm at idle. It moves when I give it gas. 5w30 Mobil 1, been the same for the last 12 years. Must be the Lucas sender and gauge.

Its staying about the same after the timing chain cover gasket.Its up a little bit more but not much.Im not use to that low oil pressure.
