Any ideas on what could be causing this? Sidom Veteran / Moderator Jun 26, 2009, 5:20 PM Post #2 of 4 (3358 views) Re: 200 ford f150 2wheel drive losing oil pressure Sign In 1st you should hook up a mechanical gauge & verify the low pressure. If the pressure is good with the mechanical gauge then you have an electrical problem. If the pressure is low, I've seen the pick up screens get partially blocked & cause this problem or all the other problems bad pumps, bearing clearances, etc..........

If this is an abused truck - like poor oil changing habits or allowing it to run real low in it's history AND sludge a factor you might buy time if oil pressure CAN show a read OK # by upping the viscosity and changing oil way too often for a while will clear the screen without flash flushing which may cause an issue. Plain quality oil is a cleaner for it's initial time - higher viscosity may up oil pressure into a safe zone all by itself. 15 or 20w- 40 or 50 would/should help for the moment, T Allan Anonymous Poster belcan2@yahoo.com Jul 13, 2009, 9:18 AM Post #4 of 4 (3301 views) Re: 200 ford f150 2wheel drive losing oil pressure Sign In Replace your oil pressure sensor if you are not hearing any noise coming from the engine.   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
