What are the causes of low oil pressure in the Cummins engine?

When using Cummins engines, occasionally there is a situation, that is, the Cummins engine oil pressure is too low.

Many people are not aware of this situation, not knowing what causes the oil pressure to be too low. So what is the cause? 

Below, please follow me to find the specific reasons for the low oil pressure of Cummins engines.

Oil pressure is very important because all kinds of diesel engines have normal oil pressure requirements, and there are limits to the minimum 

hydraulic pressure, so you have to pay attention to changes in oil pressure during the use of diesel engines.

So what is the common cause of low oil pressure in diesel engines? The main reasons are the following:.

1. The reason that the oil pressure of Kummins generator is too low might be the oil level in the oil pan is too low, which can not meet the 

demands of oil normal circulation. 

2. There is some desel or water mixed with the oil, which leads to a reduction in the viscosity of the oil and also causes the oil pressure of the

Cummins engine to be too  low. 

3. When the oil pump is used for a long time, there is a certain degree of wear, and the wear is very serious, and the assembly does not meet the 

requirements will also cause the oil pressure in the engine to be too low.

4. The pressure adjustment of the compressor valve is incorrect, causing the oil to cause severe leakage.

5. The oil pressure is too low, and another possibility is that the oil pipeline is blocked, or the phenomenon of oil leakage.

6. The oil filter is blocked by some debris, resulting in too much circulation resistance.

Therefore, the reason for the low oil pressure of the Cummins engine is probably so, if these reasons occur, then it must be handled in time, so as to 

better function.
