Slant 6 oil pressure woes…

Yeah. That’s fair. I’ll see if I can’t get my hands on my brother’s gauge before I do the pan. It’s just so frustrating. I’ve never had issues with the oiling system in the car. Never even had that light come on for a second until just a couple weeks ago. It could be the pickup. It could be the pump just finally giving out. It could be both at once. I don’t know. But I can tell you that the pump is about 10 years older than the mother, maybe 8-9. I don’t exactly remember. But I have a brand new one and I have some fiber gasket material and some right stuff and the memory of last time I made this exact gasket. It’s not fun to cut a gasket out with an xacto knife but it is what it is. The money I’ve already out into it the last couple weeks and the stress of my apartment manager freaking out about it sitting for any length of time or an oil leak is always weighing on me. And it sucks too cause right now I got perfect spring cruising weather and this is the time of year I like to daily this car. Did it last year no problem.
I was wondering if anybody had mentioned the pressure relief valve sticking, they do that, & can be serviced on the car.
