If your idle oil pressure ever falls to 20~ PSI, then you need to start being concerned.

If you spot check your idle oil temp when warmed up and it is 30, you have nothing to worry about currently.

Hope this helps
Helps a lot, you guys have helped a lot with your chiming in on topics lately. It is much appreciated from those of us with not a ton of knowledge. Look forward to any future posts from you and Mike
