[QUOTE="railroad, post: 16773721, member: 13485"] I have Speed Hut gauges on my Aluminator Coyote engine. On new engine start up. The oil pressure was 100 lb cold, 60-90 lbs hot. The gauge would be about 80 lbs and drop almost to zero and then pick back up to 60 lbs or more. Speed Hut sent me a new sending unit. That stopped all of that crap. Very bad for the nerves to watch a 14K engine seem to lose oil pressure. By the way the Aluminator runs 5W-50. A mechanical gauge is in order, until you confirm what the issue is. good luck, [/QUOTE]
