Re: What are the possible reasons for slow oil pressure on start up

Dear Bill:

I was dealing with a transport today that had the same problem. Just the gauge. You can have the gauge and sender checked out if a mechanical gauge show rapid pressure build up.

If the mechanical gauge show slow build up then check the pick up for air leaks, but given your oil pressure stays good once the motor is hot I think it is the gauge.
