New Member questions low oil pressure.
 
I just purchased a Mariah FS18 and love it. I am curious though if my oil pressure is correct. At idle it only shows aprox. 20 psi. When I idle up it climbs to 40+ psi. Some times the warning buzzer continues longer than others at start up. I checked the oil and it is clean and full. The engine has very few hours on her. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

20 psi at idle sounds fine. As far as the buzzer staying on a little longer than normal, as long as it works I would leave it alone. Just remember to pay attention to your gauges though, buzzers do break.
Happy Boating
