(1) The oil pressure gauge is inaccurate or malfunctioning;   (2) Low fuel level in the tank; insufficient fuel amount ;   (3) The oil filter cartridge or oil filter in the crankcase is clogged ;   (4) The quality of the lubricating oil does not meet the specifications ;   (5) Excessive wear gap in the crankshaft connecting rod bearings ;   (6) Excessive wear gap in the oil pump gears ;   (7) Wear of the oil seal on the oil pump shaft ;   (8) Wear of the sealing surface of the oil pressure control valve or failure of the spring ;   (9) Oil cooler, oil pipeline blockage ;   (10) Loose oil pipe connector causing oil leakage ;
