Default Re: lowest oil pressure for engine to survive

This might not answer the question. but, I had an old engine that didn't have any oil pressre at Idle. I pulled it from the truck and set it aside. A few month/years later I installed it on a run stand and it still didn't have any pressure at idle. I removed the plug from the pump outlet on the block to see if it was putting any oil out, When I started the engine the oil shot out across the yard,. Not sure what happened to that engine, we were going thru allot of them back then
