Hi,
My oil pressure is dropping. When I start the motor cold, it goes up to around 40psi, then after driving then idleing, it goes down. It continues this process of up and down until it goes to about 8-10 psi. I have changed the sending unit, double checked accuracy of gauge with mechanical gauge, used engine clean, changed oil and filter. This motor only has 67,000 on it. Other thing that could be a factor is when I primed the pump originally, I spun the drill the wrong way? Does that affect anything? Any ideas or where to look would be greatly appreciated. I have to drive 2hrs out of town tommorrow afternoon and REALLY worried about car!!! Thanks in advance, mike
