Hey y'all I'm new to this thread, but aside from that please advise. I have a 97 t100 with bad oil pressure. Upon starting, the truck has good oil pressure around 40 psi and about 15 at idle, and while driving up unto approx. operating temps. At one point it will then increase with the throttle as usual, but at approx 2000 rpm, the oil pressure around 35 psi, it will snap down to 20 psi, and nearly nothing when brought back to idle. Do these have an oil filter bypass?? Please don't tell me my pressure regulator is bad by the oil pump. I need help bad no mechanic wants to touch it, going by the phrase : but the engines don't make trouble I never worked on one...
