Just looking for a diagnosis
At cold start, oil pressure goes high like usual,
after driving around in mid 80s weather, pressure drops under 10 at idle, i've been revving the engine to keep it from going that low at lights. Oil pressure on the highway is about 20-30 psi cruising. Coolant reads 193 crank the heat, it goes down to 178, then back up to 190 after 10 minutes. I love driving around in 80 degree humid weather with scalding heat coming from the vents.
Code 24 came up on my scanmaster, which is speedo related. no idea what that means. Any ideas?
I had a rebuild this winter, and it's gone without a hitch. Changed my oil 3 times in 6 months about once every 1500 miles. Mobil 1 Synth 10w30 everytime. I've got that in now. I noticed my oil pressure was a little low about 3 weeks ago, topped it off with a quart, now the level is fine. But thats when i started seeing problems, thats also when i started driving my car back and forth between maine and CT.

...not good...do the simple things first...drop the pan and make sure the oil pickup hasn't come loose...also check for any bearing material...if the pressure has always been this way since the rebuild then the pump gears may not have been clearanced correctly...it's critical to get the end clearance set at .001-.002...
