Oil pressure issues

[PaceFever79]

I'd still pull the timing chain cover and intake just to see if an oil plug is
missing. If they are there then pull the long block for rebuild.

If one of the plugs inside is leaking it can hold 15-20 lbs of pressure until
the oil thins out after warming up and then it drops to zero.

Think of it as a percentage of pressure bleed.

It's worth a try for sure!!!
