Default pretty sure that's what ended up in there...

I was using a synthetic for a while. Pretty sure I ended up with 20w50 in the engine over the winter. Started up just fine in the cold. Just give it a little longer to initially warm up the engine and get the oil moving.

Default My guage is broken (I hope to god) and does not register any pressure.

So I just pretend that the oil pressure is fine and go along my merry way.

Default A good rule of thumb is 10psi for every 1000rpm...

You fall well within that rule, 1.15 bar = 16.1 PSI.
