I don't have an owners manual for my '90 GXL. Just wondering what the stock oil pressure gauge readings should be. I have about 30 at idle 60 at wide open and somewhere in between while cruising.

sounds about right

 

Yep... Not bad readings.

 

those are perfect

 

that is a good reading LOL mine is 0 at idle and 35-40 at cruise, and oh I would recomend not to rely on the stock gagues IMO

 

My oil pressure is alwasy at 0 lol i think i unplugged it when i was putting new batter cables in. . . where the hell is the sensor ?

 

my oil psi is below 0 think my guage is busted heh

 

the sensor is below the oil filter a little to the left if you look at the engine from the drivers side. It is a lone wire with a female plug on the end. It slides lengthwise onto a little nipple on the sensor. The wire should be yellow/red i believe.

rxcollector: you probably have a bad gasket in the front cover. probably should look into fixing that if you drive it hard.

 

LOL well actualy I am in the process of taking the motor out and shipping it to Kevin

but I never thought ov a bad front gasket thanks
I realy would like to get my hands on a used motor to learn more about these rotaries, I cant tear my rx-8 apart to learn more..hmmmm
