First, spilling oil like that is normal.
If you want to minimize the spilling, just wait a few hours after you've driven the car or...overnight. Yes, I realize that some people recommend running the engine just prior to draining the oil, but you still got a shitload of oil sitting in the oil cooler which isn't going to be removed in a normal oil change. Second, always check your oil pressure with a known, good mechanical oil pressure gauge. Stock oil pressure senders tend to go back pretty frequently, so always confirm first. -Ted |
