Dunno about the Passport specifically, but the standard pressure ranges are 6 psi or more at idle, even when hot, and 20 to 60 psi at cruise. Lower than 6 psi is courting engine damage, as is more than about 80 psi.

That's interesting. Idle in a diesel engine generates around 30 PSI of oil pressure.
