Oil Pressure Problem Relieved

Posted by Wayne M Kittler on February 28, 2004 at 13:28:02 from (24.194.176.20):

I had a problem on the Dodge 318 where the oil pressure light would not go on, but the pressure gauge dropped out of sight at idle.This is the same type problem I have with my 574 gas.
I changed the filter- it weighed a lot. The filter had little oil in it. Now, pressure seems to be maintained at normal.
In the event the filter will not pass oil, how did the engine stay lubed, even at high rpm ? Did the extreme cold contribute to this problem ? What will I have to inspect in the engine if I have found the source of the problem? What is the chance that the 574 has the same problem. I put 200 hours on it each year and it sits the rest of the time.
