Oil Pressure Problems

87mk111 · 08-01-2009, 03:01 PM

My oil pressure used to be around 40psi at 2500 rpms. For the past week or so, my oil pressure has been o lot lower. No knock, rattle, pinging, or sound whatever. My check engine light is not on either. What should I check first?

Well, I checked my oil, and there is neither coolant or metal shavings in it. So I'm stumped as to what the problem could be. Iam going to check the gauge tho, maybe that's the problem.

I was down two quarts of oil cuz my valve seals are starting to go bad. I have a spare head for it, I just need to get it checked to make sure its in good shape.
