F23a1 guys, what is your oil pressure at idle

[Jermee]

Here is my problem just replaced my oil pan after denting it by hitting a bump and noticed this

I didn't think too much of it but to take a picture.

My oil pressure is 10lbs at idle which seems really low to me (it'll climb as I rev up but will go back down to 10lbs.) I can't for the life of me remember what it was before this incident. )I don't daily this car it's a Eg with a turbo f23a1. So my specific question is again, what should my oil pressure be at idle? Thanks in advance.

This is urgent because I have a car show on the 14th and in trying to get it ready in time. Already have a new pickup tube ordered but its estimated to arrive between the 12th-14th. Trying to find out if this thing is safe to drive or not.

And no my oil pressure light isn't on

Assuming a hot engine(after its been driven), at idle you should have something along the lines of 70kPa or 10psi minimum, at 3000rpm you should have 340 kPa or 50psi minimum.

Sorry, yes it was at operating temperature.

Out of curiosity, what should it be at start up?

To be honest, i'm not sure. The previous mentioned is all I know and all what the dealer checked and reported back on as well when I went in once last year.

PS. As for your oil pickup...a referral picture taken from Patricks(x5carl3tMurd3rx) thread

Gatcha. Thanks you've been a big help. Just trying to find out if 10psi is normal at idle.

10psi is the minimum it can be at idle as per the OEM Honda Service Manual.
