Low oil pressure at idle?

[Jesusv132]

My truck has low oil pressure at idle , sometimes if i even mash the gas itll shut off, if i take off normal and start driving, the oil pressure goes up and it runs normal, but does the same thing whenever back at idle. Any ideas what it could be?

Looks ok to me.

Your ABS is unhappy.

What are those two loose nuts doing inside your instrument cluster?

Do you know what could be causing it shutoff when i mash the gas from a stop? The two nuts are from a digital speedo gauge i had mounted in the middle of the instrument cluster

There could be a variety of things causing that behavior, but first:

Have you checked the ECU for trouble codes? Do it even if the SES light is off, there may be stored codes.

You must have a 1994 or 1995, if it's not OBDII and it has that gauge cluster, so you would be OBDI, possibly using the 16197427 ECU and an $0D firmware ID.

Someone should be able to read the codes for you. The ALDI port should be above the driver's feet, somewhere along the bottom of the dash (IIRC).
