I asume that the oil is at the correct level.
Hi, The first thing I would do in your case is to see if you can check the oil presure manually with a mechanical oil presure gage. If the oil presure is low then you have a weak oil pump or on some motors a pluged oil filter. If not low presure on the oil gage then oil sending unit may be bad.
This should at least get you started in the right direction.
Hope this helps
I have spent a fair amount of time in the Dominacan Republic and just love the weather down there.
