I am finally back in the water since 2018 with a new to me engine and mast...long story which I won't get into.
The engine appears to be a very clean low hour engine and runs perfectly, except for one concern.
When I start it, the oil pressure comes right up to 40 psi.
After it runs for awhile and it is up to temp and I rev it (I haven't gone anywhere with it yet) the oil pressure fluctuates, dropping as low as 20 psi and then coming back. Is this more then an adjustment? Hopefully it is not a bearing issue?
Yes I got paint happy. LOL
Thanks in advance
