oil pressure question
was looking in buying a car and it for the most part it seems to run just fine
only thing is the oil pressure on it is to be at what 60 psi @ 2000rpms and it only hits about 40-50 maybe
at idle the pressue is about 30
also I know the pressure will rise fairly quick if you give the car gas and on this car is just goes up kinda slow doesn't just jump
could it be the oil seals or going or maybe just a bad sender or something
car doesn't seem to smoke or anything and the oil looks ok
whats up?

Its fine. Oil pumps are one thing on a rotary that never fail. You can read the guage as being +/- 10psi. Its not the most accurate thing in the world.
