- Oil pressures are given with the engine at operating temperature. With the engine cold, oil pressure may be higher. Individual engines may vary from the listed pressures; observe and record pressures when the engine is new to create a guide for checking engine condition.
- EPA07 MBE900 engines are equipped with an oil pressure switch. When above minimum pressure, the dash gauge will display the values listed in this table. If below minimum oil pressure, the dash gauge will read 0 psi.
