In warm temps such as 83-85 deg. 45 -47 psi is perfectly normal at a slow idle. These engines idle 6-800 rpm. When you rev it, it goes down, yes? Its fine.

When I rev engine it psi does go down. I was going to see if sister n law has a temp. gauge for me to check the vent not her temp.

Thanks for responding wtribeflyer.
