Question:
1994 ranger 3.0 v6. was perfect and after recent oil change intermediate oil pressure loss at gauge and "clacety clacking at top of motor . bad filter, plugged screen, bad oil pump? no water in oil, no leaks all fluids fine but not getting to top of motor
Answers:
Is this considered a motor vehicle accident?
There is very little clearance between the bottom of the oil pan and the pickup screen for the oil pump. Those engines are also prone to carbon build up under the intake, which sloughs off and winds up plugging up th pump screen.Why is my clucth peddle squeeking?
You can save your engine if you remove the oil pan and at least replace the pump screen. It would be a good idea to also replace the pump.

check oil vicosity level needed and see if that was the oil installed in your vehicle at the oil changeThis one is tough. If you just had an oil change (and it is full) it is unlikely that the oil chg is the problem. It is also unlikely that the oil filter is faulty. It is possible that the filter might be wrong for the vehicle but double check anyway. If this was an oil chg performed by a garage you need to return it immediately and have them check their work. If you did it yourself double check that filter. Question: Is this the first oil chg since you purchased this vehicle? If so, it is possible that a thicker blend was used before to quiet valve noise so it would sell- OR if you had a garage do it they may have forgot to add the oil to the engine once they let the car down (until it made noise) due to a technician change or something. Take it back immediately. Hope this helps.
