Oil Pressure on WD

I have an AC WD that indicates oil pressure at about 7 or 8. Is this a normal pressure reading or should it read at a higher level?

I purchased a new oil gauge with a scale from 0 to 30. I changed oil and filter. When I remove the oil line at the bottom of the filter, oil does flow out of tube (indicating some oil flow).

If pressure at about 7/8 is too low, what could be the problem and the fix.

Your suggestions whould be appreciated. Thanks
 
Some oil filters don't have the right density filter material. This doesn't build enough back pressure to feed the oil gallery and lines. I just used a Napa 7011 and it works. The Fram C159 works too.
 
Those engines run with low pressure systems and you need the correct oil filter or your pressure will be way way to low. You need a filter like the Wix 50711. I keep the box here at my desk so I have the number right at hand. You also need a oil pressure gauge that only read for low pressure like the ones made for them and you can find those from agco or a lot of other places like this site
 
Also, make sure the needle, that penetrates the filter media, is there. If it's missing, oil flows, without the back pressure, that the filter media provides.
 
The gauge is to high. They run lower pressure so a automotive style gauge will show the wrong pressures. I only run the factory style gauges. I do this on all my tractors.
