So I have installed a dipricol optix high preasure oil gauge and want to know if mine works like everybody elses or if there is something wrong with my truck. I installed it to see what my preasures are to judge whether I need a adrenaline pump or not.

When I turn the truck off the needle stays where it was when turned off. Then when I turn on the key it drops to 0. It doesnt read preasure when cranking but does when the truck starts. It also takes about 3 to 4 seconds before it reads.

as I am typing this it dawns on me that I probably have it wired to a dead while cranking 12v wire behind the dashboard. If it was hot while cranking then maybe it would read cranking preasures.

The other question is as my truck warms up and the oil becomes warmer it is idling with 500 psi of hpop. this seems low to me. I would like to know what preasures everybody else has on there gauges while idling. Any help would be great. as I am using this to figure out a hot start issue with the truck. I think I may have a ipr problem but when I change it I want to be able see a differance in the preasures.
