Technician A says low oil pressure causes engine wear. Technician B says engine wear can cause low oil pressure. Which technician is correct?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Both technicians are correct. Low oil pressure can lead to engine wear as it reduces the lubrication in critical engine components. On the other hand, engine wear can cause low oil pressure as worn out components create more space for oil to flow through, resulting in lower oil pressure.
