Question Does Oil Weight affect OIL PRESSURE?

So if I put an additive into my oil (i.e. Marvel Mystery Oil)

Will my oil pressure register higher?

Just wondering.

Thanks

Temp and weight do. You won't notice on the stock gauge. But with my stock coolant gauge moving even a *tenth*, my aftermarket oil pressure gauge will change about 7 PSI.
