Hey guys, I've got a 1990 ranger 2.3 2wd 5speed custom. When the engine is about a quart low on oil the guage reads below halfway. But once I too it off back to full it sits above half way. When I start the truck up it slowly comes up to above halfway. Unlike my 01 explorer that just clicks to the middle, since I know that has a dummy guage. I honestly can't figure out a straight answer, is it a real oil pressure gauge or a dummy guage on my ranger? On the ford truck group I found a lot of treads saying its a dummy guage. But I thought I'd come to the ranger pros, and ask. If it is a really guage what pressure do the letters of "normal" correspond to?
Thanks,
John
