oil pressure dropping
 

when i start up my car the oil pressure sits at about 35, which im guessing is normal. after about ten minutes it drops down between 15 and 0 and the car is dirt *** slow but it will rise back up when i start miving again. anyone know what it could be? and the engine isnt running too hot either. and im using 10w 30 oil which is not thin., thanks

Its your first step and you dont end up doing somehting that you dont need to do. Tools are great. The best ones are thre ones the wife did not know that i have. Compression tester. Oil pressure tester. Fuel pressure tester. Wobble sockets, engine lift engine stand. Etc etc etc.
