Where should my oil pressure be on a normal day. It has been moving lately to as low as 20 and when driving up to 35-40. Is this too low. Any help would be great. Thanks

10 PSI for every 1000 RPM has always been my reference.

Well on a cold start up, I'm at almost 60 p.s.i. When running normal temp range when driving I'm around 40 p.s.i. Then at idle around 18-20 p.s.i. I've heard the same for every 1000rpm should be at 10 p.s.i.
