For about a week now my oil pressure has been lower than normal. Usually when i am driving it is at the half way mark and when i stop it goes down to the quarter. Now it seems to be at the quarter when i am driving and a little above that when i am driving, any thoughts should i be worried? I had this happen one other time when i cleaned my engine some liquid got on the contact of the oil pressure sending unit. I cleaned it off and worked fine. I checked the contact this time and it had liquid on it so i cleaned it off and it is still doing it.
 
Buy a mechanic oil press gauge, and be sure about your oil press .. 35 - 85 PSI at 2000 rpm at normal operative temp ..
