Hi everyone,

I have 1990 coupe and experimenting a weird problem lately: On WOT, the oil pressure drops suddenly to the red and goes back up if i let the gas pedal go. Does that in all the gears at all speed...:shrug:

Any ideas please?

Thanks

regular pump and a regular pan... someone suggested it could be the PCV valve, what do you guys think?

The pcv is 7 bucks mine as well replace it if its never been done anyway. By the way stock gauges suck especially electric sending unit oil pressure gauges. To really tell oil pressure you need to tap into the oil gally plugs on the block with a meachnical gauge.
