Check Oil Light and No Oil Circulation

[jalangst]

Ok, I guess I don't know that the oil pressure was perfect judging by the oil pressure guage on the dash. It appeared to be working properly. I've had the oil pump stop working and it bottom out to zero. It wasn't doing that this time. I think maybe it was a combination of low oil...but I don't know where it went since I checked it recently and it was full, thick oil, the oil filter, and maybe a dying oil pump. It's probably the dying oil pump. The car sat for a long time. I would only get around to starting it and driving it down the road maybe every other month. Could have some sludge build up. Just changed the oil and that's when the problems started. I thought it could have been from the filter. I don't know. So, i'm going to do a good drain of the all the oil again and put lighter weight in it. If it's a sign of a dying oil pump, this should help give it a few more miles, you think? Any other suggestions?
