viscosity drops during highway driving especially on hot days. I am
currently running Castrol GTX 20-50. After driving about 40 miles to work
at about 65- 75 mph the oil pressure will drop to about 45 psi at speed and
about 15 psi at idle. Around town the pressure drop is not as bad. Has
anyone had better success with a different brand of oil. I don't have an oil
cooler, but it's looking like I might need one.
