Default Low Oil Pressure - 2006 F350 6.0L

A couple weeks ago I noticed my Low Oil Pressure sensor was coming on but only while at idle. It would go to normal after accelerating. I changed the oil and for a week, it ran with no issues. This morning, it started happening again, plus I noticed I had very little power when trying to merge onto the freeway. I turned the truck around and parked it.


Am I possibly looking at two different issues?

Fortunately the oil sensor issue just turned out to be the sender unit and the loss of power was the EGR valve. Relatively inexpensive and easy to deal with.
