I didn't know that. That might even help it run better. Damn I just had an oil change haha
Sent from my iPhone--If anything 20-50 is a little thicker but it has a higher rating equal to straight 50w. If your engine is tired it may boost your compression a bit

Subject: Re: Oil pressure
It's just an occasional vehicle to drive when I'm tired of driving my new truck. I hate to put 20-50 in it cause man that's some thick stuff! I ran it in the elco but I guess it was fine cause I never had problems. It never...EVER get below 20 down here. So y'all think I should run the 20-50? Will it hurt it after 40 years of 10-30? I was always very nervous and cautious about what I put in my motors, I want them to last! I can't just rebuild a motor lol not near the stuff or the time I used to...or money haha ever since I bought a house :/

to dark for me to make out anything,,,,,,,,but as your describing it, it sounds low,,,,, not a dangerous low, and not unusual for a 40+ year old engine, it will more than likely run for ever and not be harmed as long as it has some pressure and only driven on the street, I would worry if it were constantly being driven at 4500+ RPM

So after getting my motor good and hot, after driving, at idle my oil pressure gauge shows at the second line from left. I'm including a pic...let me know if it's too small ima make it small for people without cable. I just wanna know if that's not good. It comes up a Bit while driving or giving gas. It doesn't have pressures on it so idk what pressure that line is. I figured someone would know what that is...and if that's good or not. Thanks in advance!
