oil pressure low at hot idle
I have recently noticed my oil pressure dropping at idle after the engine is warmed up. It drops to about 10 psi at a hot idle. I had the sending unit replaced a little over a year ago, could it have went bad already? It seems to run fine, no unusual noises coming from the motor. Oil pressure is normal when accelerating. I checked the oil and it was normal. Im hoping its nothing too serious. Also my check gauges light does not come on when it drops to 10 psi. Not sure what to do.. ideas would be appreciated.
