normally the oil gauge sits on the high side of normal...once it had fluctuated when it was 8 quarts low (don't ask....theres a reason I am the only one who drives my truck now). this morning it registered normal for about 2 mins, then dropped below the "L"...as it soounded normal I let it run for another 5 mins....no odd or unusual noises...I am thinking the gauge just gave it up, at the same time I really dont want a "semi-educated" guess to turn into an engine replacement.
