My guage is reading two needles above 275 when I'm empty, is that normal... Chrysler just replaced the gauge and I don't remember it over 275. <br><br>Thanks

 

275 Is this is pounds. Maybe were not talking about the same gauge here. You said oil pressure and I dont know of any motor that runs at 275psi oil pressure!

 

Not psi but oil pressure. I don't know if the canadian models are different or not but my oil pressure gauge is from left to right 0-275-760. My water temperature guage is 0-90-110 and yet the voltage is 8-14-18. I woner if anyone can explain the difference in the oil and temp guage. My manual shows 0-80-150 (oil) and 140-190-240 (temp)<br><br>Thanks

 

as far as the temp guage goes its going to be celcius compared to farenheit. now the oil pressure guage im not sure maybe measure in &quot;bars&quot; or &quot;pascals&quot;. check this page convert everything/anything maybe you can figure out the conversion. as far as being different if they changed the OPS it may have a slightly different calibration same with the guage.

 

the canadian gauges are in KPA ........kilopascals ...........<br><br><br>when the truck is cold and when it's on the highway mine always reads above 275<br><br>when it's hot she drops down to just below 275 at idle ........<br><br><br>the temp gauge is in celcius (sp)<br><br>and since there's no such thing as metric electricity volts is volts <br><br>

 

Dodgeram, I think you nailed it, don't know why they put us through that c--p. Anyway thank you all for taking the time to help and give me your thoughts, very much appreciated

 

I have a Canadian RAM also and my guage reads the same as Dodgeram's. Enjoy diversity. You would of been in histeric's if you were with me when my son drove it before the US Dealer changed speedo. I yelled at him to slowdown. He looked at Speedo and hit the brakes. Then about punched me. He had commented about the high milage just before that so I knew I had Him!!

 

Sorry, I shoud have known you had metric gauges. ;D
