There was some discussion of oil pressure readings in the past, so I figured I'd put my newly arrived factory service manual to some good use...

According to Ford, the oil pressure should be 138-310 kPa at 1500 RPM, hot... (manual must have been translated from Canadian ;) )...for the rest of us, that's 20-45 PSI...

If anyone ever needs any other info from the manual, feel free to PM me...

That seems right on the money with what those of us with working oil pressure senders/gauges have been seeing. Thanks for the info!

of you have 10 lbs. of oil pressure for every 1000 rpms you're fine.;)
