[QUOTE="mmsllc, post: 91195, member: 13117"] I am curious as to the point is WHY you would need / want to check the pressure. Engine oil pressure testing is a good idea to check when engine problems arise. You should use a HYDRAULIC gauge when checking HYDRAULIC pressures. Engine oil is a fluid which is pressurized. So a good gauge that reaches 100 PSI is ideal. AS for what fitting to use, just pull the engine oil pressure sensor out & match it up at a shop that specializes in making hydraulic hoses. Tell them what you want to do & they will be able to make it happen. Then check you oil pressure with the engine COLD & again once it fully WARMS UP! Let us know what you get from this test. [/QUOTE]
