Mine sits a little past halfway when cold and a little below half when warm at idle. I know this means nothing and I should get a real guage but I was just curious

Mine has the same reading as yours. What does this mean? Have no clue. I need some real gauges.

Hot or cold, idle or higher rpm, my gauge stays just above halfway on the M or NORMAL so basically it's telling me I have oil pressure. How much God only knows, which is why i like to think of it as an idiot gauge.

Mine definately moves. When cold it's most of the way up the gauge. When warm and idling it's about the middle. New oil pump.

The needle on my oil gauge sits on N or zero. I disconnected the oem gauge a long time ago and have accurate mechanical gauges now.

Mine moves a little too but pretty much hangs out around the A.
