What kind of oil pressure do you all have on your Cat engines? We were seeing 20 at idle to 30 running on the Silverleaf, with the gauges showing much lower until the last oil change at the Cat dealer. Now its up to 40-45 running.

Our C-13 runs about 20 at idle once its warm and around 30-35 running when warm. This is about the same as the Cummins engine's I had in my pickups. Why do you think your oil pressure went up to 40- 45?

Ours is similar, low 20's at idle and mid 30's at cruise ... 2005 C13.

The gauges match the Silverleaf. Lazy Days says everything is AOK.

We will see at the next oil change what happens.

I'm guessing that it was the Cat oil and Cat filter? That is the only difference. When we did it ourselves we used Rotella and a NAPA filter.
