Oil Pressure Guage

Oil Pressure Guage
Finally got my mechanical oil pressure gauge hooked up. Used the middle galley on the back (drivers side) of the engine. Now just trying to get a base reading. Does anyone know what the oil psi should be for a 2.4? I pm'd a couple people about it too so I can pick as many brains of our great knowledgable members as possible
I really don't care for the dash mounted gauge pods. I ordered a universal dual gauge A-Pillar pod from Glo-Shift that I will modify as needed to get the fit and look I want.

HMMM? Maybe that galley isn't a good pressure one. I'm seeing about 50psi when cold but once warmed up it's hitting 20-25 at crusing speed and 10psi in drive at idle at a red light. I know the line isn't kinked. Checked and recheked that.

Look at # 9 Engine Oil Pressure (EOP) switch, it is just above the starter solenoid. Will have wiring connected to it also..
If I were to add an oil pressure gauge, I'd "T" it off the sending unit (switch) for the dash light. Best of both..
