I have a problem with my oil pressure. When I first drive the vehicle, my oil pressure is fine. After a while, (it could be 5 minutes or 2 hours but usually between 15 and 30 minutes), the oil pressure will quicly drop and I have to stop the vehicle, of course. I can let it sit there for a few minutes and then turn it back on and drive it again for a while, up to a few hours sometimes.
The repair shop recommened flushing the oil and this did help because before this I couldn't keepy any pressure up for more than few minutes. What would my next step need to be? Is this due to clogged up passageways through the block or a problem with the oil pump or pan? Any help is appreciated.
Thank you
