idle oil pressure
weird stuff just occurred. got a 95 f150 oil pressure normally sits in between r and m for the normal. today from start to finish 15 mile trip from my reserve unit i noticed it sitting between n and o. when i parked at the house the truck would have a sudden vibration and the gauge would move a bit towards the n then settle back at the o. no check engine lights. any more experienced techs out there give me an idea before i drive into the real problems.(thats the only way i know how to fix sh
t, when the problem becomes obvious.)
thanks for any help.......

but before you change it go to a auto parts store and get the stuff that you put in your oil that beaks down sludge pour one quart in the engine, and let the engine run for about 10 min the drain your oil.
