There are three possibilities here. A bad Dash Gauge, a bad Oil Pressure Sending Unit or a bad Oil Pump. I don't think it's the oil pump. The only way to check this out properly is to remove the OPSU and install an outside oil pressure gauge. This will tell you what the actual oil pressure is. If the reading is normal and steady, then the pump is in good shape. Since you have the OPSU out, install a new one. That is what's most likely wrong. If the dash gauge still goes nuts, then you'll need to replace the dash gauge. Also make sure you are using the correct oil filter. Might be a good idea to switch brands. Purolator & Wix are excellent filters.

What would cause the oil pressure to drop to zero seconds after the engine starts and then after driving less than a 100 yards the pressure goes back to normal your ride is a 2000 F150 4.2?

I, like many other people, am having the same issue. Come to find out - it's a faulty oil pressure relief valve. The valves get stuck in the open position, allowing the pressure to read normal while driving or reving, but losing pressure when stopped at idle.


Will a bad radiator cap cause excessive pressure that will cause the coolant to boil off instead of circulating through the engine?

No. Excessive pressure will not cause the water to boil off quickley. It will cause the radiaor hose or other components to burst causing loss of coolant. A bad radiator cap can cause high or low pressure; low pressure will cause the coolant to boil at a lower temperature.
