Oil Pressure
I have a 36 Ford pickup I inherited from my dad. It was running fine with about 15 lbs. oil pressure and 30-40 going down the road.
All of a sudden it idles at 0-5 lbs. and 10-15 going down the road. Oil is fresh and full. I am thinking it is the oil pump or a bearing. Any ideas. Is this a common problem??

Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
