As a follow-up to an earlier posting regarding low oil pressure readings, I finally got around to switching my instrument cluster BACK to the original cluster, and PRESTO--all my gauge readings are back to normal, with oil pressure now reading 45-50 psi when underway instead of 30 and reading 35 at idle instead of 13.
I'm much happier, because although I know that these are merely "readings" that don't necessarily reflect actual pressure in the engine, I like to monitor the values and note trends, and am therefore glad to have my original baseline numbers back on the gauge.
