Has anyone seen something like this pressure change during a run before? 4 different runs on the same day.

No the first run isn’t at the top. That is the third run, then first, then second and the fourth run stayed flat.

I have a manifold on the firewall that has my sensor, pressure gauge, and oil light all on. I wondered if there might be an air issue there but wasn’t sure. It’s all new.
