What does low oil pressure indicate? The car has been sitting for 10 years. Any suggestions. We have replaced gas pump as well as points, plugs, rotor and cap. We would like to take her to a car show in June and need some guidance on bringing her back to life.

Hopefully you have changed every fluid in the car prior to starting it.

Low oil pressure could be from clogged pick up screen, oil pump, worn main or rod bearings are among some of the possibilities
