Oil pressure and Oil viscosity
On my sbf 302 the oil pressure on 850 rpm idling is 60 lbs. Driving on 2000 rpm it shows 70 lbs.
Oil Temperatur 180°F. No oil cooler.
Oil brand: Castrol Edge 10-60.
Has the higher oil viscosity influence to the idle oil presure?
Would it be better to change at a lower viscosity like Castrol Edge 5-40?
Winter temperatures in my area are approx 45°F. Sommer temperatures up to 100°F.
Suggestions welcome!
Rico
