Truck came in with low base oil pressure. Gauge would sometimes show oil pressure and randomly it wouldn't. Truck would still run and drive customer complained of low power though.
Hooked up a manual gauge and it shows less than 5-10 psi at idle. Cold is obviously a bit higher but not much. Popped out the oil filter and held down the drain back valve. Canister fills up like normal and holds the oil. At that point we knew the leak or loss of pressure was somewhere internally and after the lpop.
Dropped the oil pan and found this
Spun a cam bearing out of place. Unfortunately we didn't get to dig any deeper as the customer doesn't have the cash to fix it. Thought this might be a possible cause for anyone searching for this problem.
