I was driving from Oklahoma City to Abilene (about 300 miles), about half way I noticed my oil pressure gauge was reading low. I checked the oil and there was none on the dip stick! I put in 3 quarts of oil and it's still a little low (at the low line on the dip stick). What gives? Car is running good, EGT's are normal, fuel pressure is good. I don't understand what's going on. Anybody have any thoughts? Oh, I do have a small exhaust leak but I've had it for a while.

(BTW I'd HIGHLY recommend an oil pressure gauge, there were no signs it was low besides the gauge.)

I went through this about a year ago, or something similar. two things right off the top of my head 1. if it's rings and time for a rebuild you will have a constant blue smoke and it will be bad real bad 2. best case scenario a top end job is needed, new valve seals and head job-but do a compression test and that will tell u. if its the later, pull your head and take it to a machine shop yourself you'll save more cash than at satan unless ur still under warranty

Okay, I just went out to look under the hood. And apparently I'm not burning oil. There's oil all over the bottom of the engine. Any ideas?
