I've noticed lower oil pressures lately. Between 30 and
40 at 3500 rpm or so when hot.
I need
to double check the calibration, but was wondering what people consider
normal.

Normal
depends on which regulator you have, but it's usually about double what you're
reading. My initial oil pressure check after cranking is about 75 psi, at
2000 rpm. It's probably less than that when warm, but I can't recall
checking it. I know that my oil pressure low alarm is set at 35, and it
never goes off. I agree about double checking the cal. That's
almost certainly the
problem.

won't let me cook with MMO anymore because it leaves too much
residue)
