I've got a fresh built engine 30 miles on it. Manually checked oil pressure at the factory oil pressure sending unit and at idle
Cold- 12psi
Hot - 5 psi
At 3000 it makes 60+ warm
Any ideas why such low oil pressure? The squirter valves are brand new from Honda. The cylinder block does have the oil control valve installed.
The oil pump is used from previous engine and only had 14k miles when installed.
I'm guessing oil pump is the faulty item but hopefully someone can possibly have a good idea prior to tearing down the new engine
