63 4000 oil pressure

MoMark · Oct 1, 2013

My oil pressure is reading about 30 psi. Used to be a good bit higher(60 at least). Is running fine otherwise. Is that an acceptable number? Gauge faulty maybe? Any advice?

was it a drastic change.. like one day was 60, the next 30?

if so.. was it after a service event. like oil / filter change?

always investigave drastic changes and try to determine if you just did something that may contribute to it... pinced off a cap line.. different oil.. different filter.. etc.

lastly. i always keep a reference oil gauge handy to double check. I also change out oil pressure gauges whhen i get a tractor. gauges DO go bad. I have seen 4-30 psi difference on a replaced gauge vs one installed when i got it.

post back.

also.. is this a gasser or diesel?

original engine ( casting codes ) ?

oil and filter type?

recent changes?
