hey guys/girls,
ive noticed recently that when i start my car (cold starts) that the oil gauge needle shoots straight up to 8. now after a while of idling the needle slowing goes down to 4. what is odd is that when i accelerate the needle goes slowing upwards towards the 8 on the oil guage, other times it would just stay on 4. but when i decelerate and slow down then the needle goes down to 2 but creeps back up again towards and stays at 4 when i accelerate. i dont think this is normal, as i dont recall the needle ever fluctuating up and down before. if i remember correctly, on cold starts the needle stay at 0 until it warms up then goes to 2 on the gauge and not often 4. am i being paranoid or is their something wrong??
any help is much appreciated,
duc.
