  • Oil Pressure question

    One more thing. I have an oil leak in my rear main seal and I don't know if its the reason my oil pressure is looking lower. Can that have a major affect on the preformance on a car?

    Unless it is pouring out like crazy , then no. if it is just leaving little oil spots then your oil pressure should still be good along with performance, unless you have a bearing going out.

      Mine has a slight rear main seal leak and I can notice a very slight difference in oil pressure when it's leaking. Typically this is when the car is hot and sitting at a stop. The needle will slightly dance at each end of the 60psi mark.

      How much lower is your oil pressure?
