When 1st starting my 100-6 my oil pressure is about 40 at idle (600 rpm) and 52 at 3000 rpm. After a 15-20 minute drive in Phoenix (105 degrees), the oil pressure is down to 5 at idle and about 25-30 at 3000 rpm. I am working on getting the engine to run cooler but what else could be causing the low pressure? The rocker arm was rebuilt but the oil pump was not. Could be be the pump? Anything else to check? The gauge seems to work OK but is not correct for my 100-6 so I am having a correct one rebuilt for it now.
Thanks,
Chuck
