Yip, completely normal. blazee 03-13-2005, 04:47 PM The norm would be about 30 - 40 at idle and 45 - 60 while driving. Personally, I wouldn't run it this low, but the minimum while hot is: 1000 rpm..............6 psi 2000 rpm............18 psi 3000 rpm............24 psi eamz 10-13-2009, 04:28 PM I have a 98 blazer. I was driving at about 85 wen my check engine soon light came on. There is no oil leak. The temperature stays normal. But i have no idea why the light came on. jdmccright 10-14-2009, 12:46 PM Any other symptoms other than the check engine light? I presume you have low to no oil pressure if you're posting to this old thread. Check your oil level. If the stick is dry, you're burning oil. Then get a scanner and read the trouble code. The other common problem is a loose gas cap. Check the o-ring for good seal. Hope this helps! vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
