2004 Ford Taurus Low Oil Pressure? Sign In

Hey all.

My 2004 Ford Taurus (about 60k miles) has been giving me some problems recently. When I try to start it, the engine comes on and the batteries are fine for a few seconds, then the engine dies and the computer reads "LOW OIL PRESSURE." I had recently had my starter replaced and my oil was last changed in late May. I haven't noticed any leaking oil. What could be the problem?

If engine quits it wouldn't have any oil pressure. IDK - if possible get codes read to direct why engine stalls. If really low oil pressure it would say so when running and stop running it if true. Do check oil level at least and go from there as to the best approach,

like tom said thats normal when engine isn't running it's not going to create any oil pressure. What you need to do is figure out why it's stalling.
