I double checked the oil pressure in my TD yesterday with another mech oil 
pressure gauge.  The readings were decidedly better 12-14 psi hot at idle, and 
30-35 revved up hot (not at limiter).  I thought, due to getting two different 
opinions, that I ought to get  a third to see who to believe.  I pulled out my 
fuel pressure tester (hadn't thought of it previously) and ran it today.  The 
fuel pressure gauge is definitely the highest quality of the three and it 
looks even better for oil pressure.  It said a solid 15 psi at idle and would rev 
up to 50 psi.  :-)  Now what do I do with all those engine rebuilding parts 
that just arrived?  Why do I always think the sky is falling?
