A convenient gauge makes it easy to read

Questions & Answers

Test the oil pressure on a 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 with five cylinders if this is the method you use. Do you have 7 hemisphericals?

Most vehicles should be able to use the adapters

What should you look for when reading a fluctuating gauge? What would be your average high and low point? The high point would be your actual spike, the low point would be your actual ?

An oil pressure that is constant should be measured using When the engine is at idle, the low pressure should be 40psi, and with RPMS it should reach up to 60psi or greater. The PSI should remain consistant throughout the day rather than fluctuate. Pick-up could be an issue because of FLUCTUATION There was a blockage in the screen of the up tube.

Do you know if it would work with a 2007 C6 z06 LS7?

Not sure if it can fit all models, but it seems to have enough adaptors to fit all models. I used it on a 2007 G6 with a small filter diameter. Stack up what is needed and match thread size. This worked well for me.

It seems to work on Briggs & Stratton engines, and small engines in general. What do you think of Koehler and Kawasaki?

You should be able to use it if it has a spin filter.

Removing the check valve in the adaptor fitting is necessary
5/5

This is the core style of a tire valve. Is well-suited to the job. Although there is a learning curve, it does not come overnight. It proved to be a painful experience. In the fitting on the adaptor, there is a check valve that stops oil pressure from getting into the gauge. The only thing read was peak pressure, to the point that active pressure was missed when there really was an active I removed the valve and it is now in good working order.

Most systems can be tested with this unit
4/5

As long as the filter has a spin on, this will work. There are times when I feel like I'm adding too many adapters, which makes it feel like Mickey Mouse. However, it's functional. Perhaps a longer hose could be added more easily or the hose could be simply adapted to a longer length.

The odds are not in your favor at all! Oil filter adapter is threaded on, but the machined edges are The seal on one side comes undone because of a small gap of 1/16"

It's easy to get everything tight but not have the cup seated correctly on the filter housing, leading to.

Is well-suited to the job
4/5

Retried the adapter after it got stuck. You must remove the schrader valve from the filter adapter prior to making a measurement. In spite of this, it is a powerful tool, especially for its low price tag.
