WTF is up? I fixed my brake problem today and I took it for a spin and now the oil presure is really low. It goes up in idle but as soon as I put it in 1st in drops. It picks up when I accelerate. Is it broke or is the oil pump ****ed up?

Well I took it out for a drive. And everytime I accelerate the oil pressure goes up then goes down. It happens in every gear. Sometimes the needle dances by itself. Goes up then down then up again, like if I was in the Bermuda triangle. Any ideas?

I know Fram oil filters are the worst by far! I would use a quality
oil filter like Mobil 1 or K/N! I always use K/N oil filters and
I never had a problem!
