Hi everyone,

Just wondering what other 190 Sport owners with the 4.3 MPI are observing their oil pressure level to be?
Mine is normally around the 60psi mark most times, just wondering if that is normal.

The Temp normally runs around the quarter mark.

Thanks in advance.

IIRC engine temp approx 140* and oil pressure is 50 ish.

Mercrusier specs are 160* operating engine temp and oil pressure of 30 - 55 psi @ 2000rpms.

Consistant temps & oil pressure within normal operating ranges is desirable.

An old mechanic's rule for oil PSI is idle 20psi and a minimum of 10 additional psi for every 1000 rpms thereafter (eg. 3000 rpm 30psi +, 4000 rpm 40psi+, 5000rpm 50psi + etc)
