Hey all,

Just wondering what the stock average psi is. Ive had 4 NA supras and rarely have seen the oil pressure above 60psi. My supra is showing 80 or more any time im goin 30mph or more.

A week ago I suspected my front main oil seal was leaking. It was the only explanation I could come up with for EVERYTHING under the hood being coated in oil. I suspected oil was comin out from the crankshapft case an hittin the cooling fan and dispersing everywhere from there. I replaced the seal and all seemed good after a few drives around town. then I did a freeway test drive and sure enough oil covered everything under the hood afterward. Now Im suspecting the oil pressure is too high.

I will check responces and reply as much as I can but my access to a computer is pretty limited at the moment but any input on this issue would be greatly appreciated. This issue is causing me much grief as I depend on this car as my daily driver and am too broke to purchase another.

Oil pressure is related to engine rpm not vehicle speed.

If your going off the stock gauge i would get a mech gauge that goes temply where the sender is and verify what exactly the oil pressure is.
