help, i have 88 firebird and there is no oil pressure when warmed up and idling at stop lights. but when i start driving again it gets back up to 40. at startup its fine, its just when its warmed up (driven 8-10 miles or warmer weather), the temp gage is about 180-220 so its in the normal range, the oil level on the dipstick is within limits. and i dont seem to be leaking any oil,perhaps burning some with 142,000 on the motor, but it just started to drop into the red on the oil pressure gague which never dropped below 20 before, please advise...is there an oil pump that went bad? mail me as i dont frequent this bessage board.

I have the same problem with my 1988 2.8 liter v6. The engine code is the LB8. I've replaced all emissions controls and retrofitted my vaccum lines to factory, but on the other hand I have a cracked pan gasket. Could it be a air volume problem where the motor is drawing in a vaccum through the pan?
