ok me and hondatyper wired up my gauges last night the oil psi gauge is giving us one hell of a time we wired it up and it doesnt do anything for about 5-10 minutes then it slowy crawled up to 75 psi at idle, i thought this is a lil high for a bone stock h22a... so we replaced the oil sending unit and the oil psi gauge which we have no reason to believe isnt good. double checked the wires everything checked out ok. started the motor and it still really slowy crawled up to 75 psi and sat there didnt move with engine revs, doesnt move when driving the car. the car drives perfect oil level is good vtec still comes online everything works except my oil gauge. might sound like a minor problems but id really appreciate any help

I found your problem!!! You and Frankie did it

 

i wish that was the reason

 

ttt
please tell me wtf is wrong with my car

 

Maybe the actual guage is bad..

If not, give me the car

 

did it stay at 75psi even after letting it warm up for about 5-10 minutes? Also did you look up the factory oil pressure range? Mine for the GSR is from 10-75 psi i believe. It's in the haynes manual.

 

yea it just sat at 75 and didnt move until the car was shut off

 

my bet is the gauge is messed up. electric autometer gauges break VERY easily.

 

you think you're funny dont ya


It did the same thing with 2 gauges and 2 sending units. The motor was in another car with the same gauge hooked up and it worked fine. We did the swap to the new car and then wired the gauges and the oil pressure gauge is being teh ghey. It goes to 75 psi and DOES NOT MOVE from there. Doesnt matter if you rev it or just let it idle.
