Frank, Won't this data be worthless unless everyone uses a shop-quality oil pressure gauge to take the measurements? The VDO dash gauge covers 80 psi over a distance of about an inch and a half, in 10 psi increments. I've heard from a couple of knowledgeable folks that the VDO isn't sensitive enough to react to small pressure fluctuations, and hence is limited in use as a diagnostic tool.
