Having low oil pressure issues in a WD-45
diesel. It will read toward the low side of
normal cold, then steadily drops completely
off after the oil warms up, say after the
first 10-15 minutes. I'm running 15-40 oil.
I've tried a new and correctly calibrated
gauge, checked the filter stems and it has
the correct filters. Engine doesn't seem to
knock or make any noises like the bearings
should be that bad. I find quite a bit of
info about oil pressure issues on a gas
engine but none on a diesel. Any thoughts
where to look next?
