Oil is not only a lubricant but it helps to remove heat from the engine. If you loose oil pressure the engine will not be lubricated properly and will begin to overheat. You have a serious problem and you will destroy the engine if you drive it with low oil pressure. Have this looked at by a professional. Do not start this engine until it has been repaired.
