Thank you for the reply. That is about what my tach is reading, thought it was a little high, wasnt sure because of transmission problems at first with car. Yes, it's a 2.3, and it's got allot of pep for a 4 banger. I'm leaning towards a bad guage right now, only because the previous owner drove it this way till the trans went, and never had problems. I'll let everyone know how I make out with a more accurate oil pressure guage.
