When i start my truck my oil pressure guage stays down for about 2-3 seconds before riseing. Is this a problem for any of you or is it just a delay in the guage?

 

its gonna take a couple seconds for oil to be pumped up to the heads, mine does the same

 

pump might be getting clogged...

mine hits almost 60 when i start it up then slowly drops to 40.

 

mine does it also. the pump has to push the oil from the pan, to the top of the motor, before it will get a reading. its cause the sending unit is on top of the block

 

I have the same issue with mine but it is intermitent. Some days its right away and others it the check guage light comes on for a breif second.

 

if it aint broke.. dont fix it.. there isnt anythng wrong with the delay.. 1.. takes a second or 2 to get the oil to the top of the motor.. 2. its all computer controlled.. ya gotta let it go thru its 'boot up' process

 

its normal. mine takes about 2 seconds to register also. since pump is mechanical it has to pump the oil column all the way to the top of the motor.
