Hello all, I have an 86' O'day 272 with an apparent oil leak. The oil pressure barely gets above 5psi, there is oil underneath the engine and a faint continuous alarm emits as soon as you turn on the key. I've looked for signs of a leak around the Rocker cover gasket and the Head cylinder and gasket but there are no traces of oil running down from those locations.
My questions:
Has anyone out there experienced a similar issue with oil pressure?
How do you begin to search for the root cause of the problem?
How did you correct the oil pressure problem?
