When the oil pump pressure is insufficient, it can lead to inadequate lubrication of engine components, resulting in increased friction and wear. This can cause overheating and potential engine damage, such as seizing or bearing failure. Additionally, warning lights may illuminate on the dashboard, indicating low oil pressure and prompting immediate investigation to prevent severe engine issues. Regular maintenance and monitoring of oil levels and pump functionality are crucial to avoid these problems.
Yes. Car engined rely on pressure lubrication, and with a busted pump there won't be enough pressure.
Defective oil pressure sending unit or the oil pump is defective.
the pressure of oil that the oil pump is pulling?
It does not dissolve in the oil. If the pump happens to pick up the sugar, the filter will stop it. If there is enough sugar, the filter could become restricted and oil glow will suffer.It does not dissolve in the oil. If the pump happens to pick up the sugar, the filter will stop it.

It better have. Otherwise you need a new pump. And that is possible!
no
there is a second oil pressure switch that shuts off the fuel pump if theres not enough oil pressure
The oil sending unit is bad or the oil pump is not pushing enough pressure.
you need to install new oil pump
If the oil level is too low this can happen. However, the oil pump, in the oil pan, could be going bad. At higher RPM the pump creats enough force, but at idle is doesn't. Check you oil level first, then look into the pump. Before going to far have a shop install an external oil pressure gauge and check the pressure. It may only be an oil pressure switch that is bad.
If the compression is high enough you get a diesel engine.
Simple enough. pull the harmonice balancer, aka the crank pulley. remove the crank seal and there is the low pressure motor oil pump for the 7.3
