2000 Toyota Tundra Low Oil Pressure

All information how to reset low engine oil pressure warning light is taken from Toyota Tundra 2 generation owners manual.

2000 toyota tundra low oil pressure. My 2004 tundra when the engine warms up the oil pressure guage reads 14 pressure on the guage when idle. One of the most serious issues that can happen to your Toyota Tundras engine is if it ends up with low oil pressure. 1st Gen Tundra 47s generally speaking low indicated oil pressure no major problem.

Looked it up and found out that the set oil pressure at idle is 4-5 psi. Just purchased 03 tundra with 47 171000 miles low oil pressure almost half at cold start warmed up low idle 116 2000 rpm 38 3000 rpm almost 12 driving 55 sometimes drops to 116 c. The truck has not died since then but the idle is still low and acts like it want to die.

To reset the low engine oil pressure warning light on a Toyota Tundra you must add some engine oil and the indicator will go off. I was very concerned but after installing a mechanical gauge my concerns are gone. Have the oil pressure checked for a proper reading during start ups when the engine is cold.

Is there an easy solution to try before having the gauge replaced. When the oil pressure light on it should be assumed that the engine locking up is imminent. Verify proper operation of the Oil Pressure Gauge.
