CAUTION
(cont)
If oil pressure reading is zero (0) or very
low, or if temperature reading is over
210°F (98.8°C ), shut down engine at
once, or engine may be damaged.
NOTE
●
Position of instruments shown is normal
but some trucks may have instruments in
different positions.
●
Normal oil pressure with engine running
at idle speed is about 10 psi (69 kPa).
With engine running at road speeds, en-
gine oil pressure should read about 45 to
60 psi (309.275 to 413.700 kPa).
●
Some engines have normal oil pressure
readings between 40 and 75 psi (275.800
and 517.125 kPa) at road speeds. If your
oil pressure gage has a maximum reading
of 60 psi (413.700 kPa) and the needle
peaks at 60 psi (413.700 kPa), notify or-
ganizational maintenance. They will re-
place the gage and sending unit with one
that can measure a higher range of oil
pressure.
