This is on my 89 f250. I noticed my idiot gauge would go to zip and the check engine light come on at any rpm under 1000. So I put my Autometer check gauge in the sending unit oil galley on the back of the block. 1000 rpm reads 2 lbs , 1500 rpm is 8 lbs, 2000 rpm is 15 lbs and 2500 rpm is 20 lbs.
The truck isn't rattling or knocking (yet). I know about the oil pressure regulator in the filter/cooler head. Anyone ever seen that stick open, which I think would allow most of the volume/pressure from the pump to bypass???
I guess the other option is oil pump and bearings...
Any ideas are welcome! Thanks
