Anyone ever tested Sunpro oil pressure gauge for accuracy?
Wondering how accurate a Sunpro oil pressure gauge is likely to be -
trying to determined whether I have an oil pressure issue. Anyone ever checked one against a known accurate gauge? |

Sun Pro is a well known trusted mfgr, IMO, but nothing lasts forever. GW |

No but my guess is that accuracy will be good enough. Typically oil switches turn on the trouble light at a very low oil pressure, say 5 psi or below. Normal oil pressure is roughly 40 psi at highway speeds and 12-15 psi at idle (Chevy small block. Likely similar on a Japnese make). Vito |
