What is Normal C5 Oil Pressure? VID - CorvetteForum
2024年9月8日 · Resistance can come in forms of thicker oil/higher pressure pump/tighter bearing clearances which can increase pressure reading. General rule of thumb on a stock motor and stock weight oil is 10psi for every 1000rpm
what is normal oil pressure at idle? - CorvetteForum
2007年12月21日 · Once the oil temps climb to 180 or so, pressure is 25(idle) to 40 (cruise @ 70). Still get 28 mpg+ on the hwy, so heavier oil (slight) didn't affect MPG. I had a twin turbo Mitsubishi with 130k miles that would routinely run 8 psi at idle, so don't need much at idle.
what is "normal" oil pressure - CorvetteForum - Chevrolet Corvette …
2002年5月26日 · After change (Mobil 1 5W-30 and UPF44), pressure is ~ 35 at idle, and in the 50's under throttle. From what I've seen, this is a normal reading. A good rule of thumb is 10 psi/1000 RPM. If you are running Mobil-1, the 100 degree C viscosity is about the lowest of all the synthetics. Mobil-1 10W-30 is about the same.

2006年4月27日 · Now the oil pressure gauge (before oil change) always went up to 40 Psi and staid there. Only under hard acceleration the gauge would go up to 50 Psi maybe.....

2011年9月22日 · On a hot day after the engine and drivetrain has warmed up, it is possible to see 15PSI at idle without any concern. The main thing to watch for is a rise in pressure once in gear. At 2000 RPM, you should see 45PSI. As RPM increases, so should the oil pressure. Most LS engines top out at 60-75PSI.
Oil Pressure Range - DigitalCorvettes.com Corvette Forums
2014年4月10日 · I have a 99' coupe, and my oil pressure readings seem normal, but just wanted to check. At cold start and warmup, at idle its around 45-50 PSI. Until is warms up, the oil pressure goes anywhere from 45-60 PSI (sometimes a smidge over 60), and after warmup stays between 35-50-ish.
Good oil pressure reading - Chevy Corvette Forum
2010年6月3日 · The oil pressure in my '98 C-5 reads around 40 pounds when it is started and drops to about 30-35 pounds when it gets warmer and then about 25 pounds when ideling in traffic. I used to have a Vette years ago and I can't remember.
What is the correct oil pressure (PSI) when operating a corvette C5 …
The minimum oil pressure rule of thumb is 10psi per 1000 RPM. The trend of most C5 owners would be 55-60 psi at 65 MPH. It depends on outside temps, engine temps oil viscosity, age, millage etc.
normal oil pressure for a C5 corvette - CorvetteForum
2022年6月29日 · By going to a thicker oil, you may increase pressure, but you'll also reduce flow! Run 5w-30, or 0w-40 Mobil 1, or similar, and you'll be fine. Just going to a heavier oil to increase gauge readings does nothing for the engine, except raise oil temps, and draw a slight amount of extra power due to the oil pump working harder.
