what should my oil pressure gauge read

First of all, check whether the oil pressure gauge is reset to zero. When the engine is stationary without oil pressure, the oil pressure gauge should be reset to zero. Because the oil pump is a mechanical pump, the oil pressure will increase with the speed of the engine when the engine is running. high and rising. Therefore, the higher the engine running speed, the higher the oil pressure supplied by the oil pump.

The following is an introduction to the engine oil pressure:

1. The level of engine oil pressure, the turbine flowmeter indicates the technical status of the lubrication system; whether the technical status of the lubrication system is normal can also be reflected from the oil pressure gauge. Once the oil pressure gauge indicates abnormality, stop the vehicle immediately to check and eliminate it.

2. The oil pressure has always been very low. The engine oil pressure gauge always indicates below 0.1Mpa at low speed or high speed, low temperature or high temperature of db2r_8, and the oil pressure warning light is flashing, which means that the oil pressure is too low.

How to check the oil pressure gauge:

1. The unit of the oil pressure gauge is generally MPA. To observe the oil pressure, you only need to observe the oil pressure pointer indication;

2. The function of the diesel engine pressure gauge is to display the change of oil pressure in the lubrication system;

3. Oil pressure is an important indicator of the lubrication system, and its size indicates the strength of lubrication;

4. The oil pressure of the general internal combustion engine is specified in the range of 0.15 ~ 0.3MPa;

5.The commonly used oil pressure gauges include elastic tube type and electric heating type.

6.The normal indication value pointer of the pressure gauge is between 3 and 5, which is normal. When the engine is working, the oil pressure is generally kept within the pressure range of 150~350kPa; if the pressure value indicated by the oil pressure gauge is less than 98kPa, it can be considered that the oil pressure is too low, and the inspection should be stopped immediately, otherwise it will easily cause excessive wear and even Major mechanical failures such as "burning tiles and holding shafts".
