Oil pressure
What is a good oil pressure at idle speed? After I've been driving for like 10 minutes, it drops to appx 7 or something. Its very disconcerting.
On a different note, I get the egr code, apparently like many people, however, my check engine light comes on immediately after ignition, as opposed to after sustained driving, like what many people describe as happening. This seams weird to me. Does anyone have a picture of the valve and solenoid in a tpi engine? i don't know what they look like...
Thanks in advance for entertaining my n00b questions.

15-20 at idle is as low as it should ever get. Any lower is dangerously low.
