YES
Yes, it can. It measures the engine oil pressure and if it fails, the pressure can come through it losing oil.
If you are losing coolant, you probably have a bad cylinder head gasket. Too much coolant system pressure will drop your engine oil pressure.
Too much oil in an automotive engine can cause high oil pressure. High oil pressure could cause blown seals and gaskets allowing oil to leak out.
What happens first? Pressure/Engine Dying? Has the oil always been changed? If not oil will form sludge, when the oil is finally changed, the detergent in the new oil breaks free the sludge which can get sucked into the oil pump intake. this would cause an immediate loss of oil pressure and engine issues. Thats been my experience with sudden oil pressure loss issues. Dan
Cause low pressure oil pump
A worn out, tired, high mileage or abused engine could cause low oil pressure.
Oil level or pressure will not trip a check engine light.
low oil pressure is caused by, either low oil in engine or a bad oil pump
No it will not. Unless the oil pressure is low on the 350 engine. If you had good oil pressure in the 305, and the 350 don't then there is something wrong with the 350. Bad oil pump, engine bearings worn out, Oil pump pick-up screen stoped up. Things like that cause low oil pressure.
If the engine is not noisy then you have pressure. The cause is probably a failed oil pressure switch.
Too much oil in your car will not cause it to throw a rod. Too much oil in the engine will create a higher than normal engine pressure and can cause the engine seals to fail.
No it will not.
