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.
Don’t keep driving
if
the
oil
h
pressure
is low.
If
you do, your
cllgine can become
so
hot
that
it
I
catches fire.
You
or
others
could be
burned. Check your
oil
as
soon
as
possible and have your vehicle
serviced.
