Oil Pressure Gauge

I asked this in the Facebook group, but I wanted to confirm with you folks in here just in case. Does your oil pressure gauge move from about dead top center to about 10 o'clock (if the gauge was a clock), and then back to 12 o'clock (top dead center)?

When? As in what are you doing when you notice this.

Yes sir, when I'm running at highway speeds it fluctuates. The temps look fine and don't move, but the oil pressure goes up and down.

Yes, this is normal. Both my of brother's chevy's also do this. My 07 f150 didn't, word was Ford got tried of people freaking out about the oil pressure guage moving and just made it static....or at least that's what the internet says.

I was told the oil pressure is a live gauge per the ford shop

That is normal on these trucks.

It fluctuates based on the amount of turbo boost given. Display the boost gauge and watch both.

Where is the setting for changing the displayed gauges?

There is a configure gauges option in the settings. Then Left Select Gauge and Right Select Gauge. Just select Boost in one and oil pressure in the other.

Ok I'll try that, thanks.
