I'm having a problem with low RPM oil presure on my truck. When the truck is started the oil pressure is normal, no problems. Then after 15-20 miles, at low RPM (600-800), the oil pressure drops. The longer it is run, the worse the issue get until at a light or idle the pressure is completely gone. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Would be using a oil pressure tester to see if the sensor is missreading or what. If you have a low pressure I would check the oil pressure regulator valve or suspect a bad oil pump.
