Engine oil pressure:
Standard
98 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm2, 14.2 psi) or more (at 700 rpm)
294 kPa (3.0 kgf/cm2, 42.6 psi) or more (at 2,000 rpm)
490 kPa (5.0 kgf/cm2, 71.0 psi) or more (at 4,000 rpm)
• If the oil pressure is out of specification, check oil pump, oil filter and lubrication line. 
• If the oil pressure warning light is ON and oil pressure is within specification, check the oil pressure switch. 
NOTE:
Standard value is based on an engine oil temperature of 80°C (176°F).
