Oil Pressure!!!

[4x4runner91]

Just want to see what avg. operating oil pressure is for the 3.0 V6...(while running under load and while idling at a stop)?

[L || | | | | H ]

Red is my idling oil pressure and green is my driving oil pressure

same as mine allthough under heavy acceleration sometimes it gets 3/4 the way up.

move the red and green each over one line and thats what i've got

Mine is about the same, although I do notice that on long trips, it will drop even lower.

Mine does the same thing

My 3.0TD is the same, and also drops lower on long trips

I've noticed after a oil changed i get higher oil pressure readings. also the 3vz is notorious for false readings from the OPSU so if you're really concerned you can change that out, its located right by the oil filter

anyone use Lucas in their oil? I've used it on several other vehicles with no problem...should it be ok in the 3vz? Is there something similar to add?
