[oletrucks] 216 oil pressure

["John Groves" <avmech@bellatlantic.net>]

I am running an original 216 with about 90,000 Mi. The oil pressure runs
from about zero + a little at idle
to about 15+ a little at speed. do these numbers sound normal. Bad oil pump?
bad rings, bearings? I need this
motor to last a while as I just purchased the truck, and would like to drive
it a while before having to tear
into it. Thanks for all your help!!
