you lost oil pressure from no oil!!!!!

it is either burning it or the return holes are clogged keeping it up in the valve covers.

not a fan of lucas products at all. oil has all the additives you need.

have you kept up on all oil changes??

have the motor checked for internal damage from driving with no oil
