Hello, I am new to this forum and hoping for some thoughts on an issue I am having with my Explorer. The truck starts and drives great at all speeds and for extended periods of time. However, if I leave it to idle for a few minutes, the engine has a bit of a hiccup that can sometimes cause the engine to stall. If the engine stalls (which is not every time, and not if I apply any throttle), the information screen displays "Low Oil Pressure". The truck can be started back up immediately with no issues. This happens both in gear and in park and is relatively infrequent. It also only happens after idling for a few minutes and once warmed up a little. No issues with the oil pressure gauge, no dash lights, and really no other symptoms. Does anyone know what could be causing this?
