Oil Pressure
Usage:
Be sure that the engine is filled to the correct level with SAE 15W-40 oil. If any other viscosity of oil is used, the following information does not apply.
Operate the engine to achieve the normal operating temperature. With the engine at operating temperature (using SAE 15W40 oil), the maximum oil temperature is 110°C (230°F). This temperature is from or after the oil cooler. Check the engine oil pressure in the oil gallery on the right side of the engine.
Oil pressure under full load condition ... 275 to 414 kPa (40 to 60 psi)
Minimum oil pressure at low idle (600 to 800 rpm) ... 68 kPa (10 psi)
