Pull the Hood Release handle,once the hood has popped up unlock the hood latch, after opening of the hood, set up the hood holding rod, look for a cap on the engine or near the engine, the cap can say, oil, motor oil, engine oil, motor, engine, 5w30, 10w30, or may have a picture of a oil can,open the oil filler cap, put a funnel into the oil filling hole and hold funnel with one hand and slowly pour the oil in after the cap of the motor bottle with other hand, then stop putting oil in to check the oil level on the oil level stick with a rag, then add more oil as needed, with engine off, after that clean the oil level stick with rag and repeat process until oil is at full mark on the oil level stick, put everything where it was, close the hood, sometimes needed to slam the hood to lock it and happy driving.

the black cap where it says mitsubishi diesel.
oil should be changed regularly and flushed out along with new filter, just keeping topping up is not good, change according to service manual

SOURCE: loose oil pressure when engine slows down

That's normal in most cases, depending how low it goes. 40 psi approx when driving, 20 psi approx when idling ?

i would start by cleaning out the throttle body. they collect soot and not have to be a lot either for it to mess up the idle speed, i had trhis on mine soon as i dipped the clutch to slow down the rpm dropped to about 400 to stall, i cleaned throttle body out ( taking air intake off and wipe round inside and the butterfly will be enough) and now it idles and the rpm dont drop below 900

Generally three things can turn the light on. First is the sending unit itself if it's going bad. Next is an obstruction of the pump pickup screen (usually hard carbon deposits). Third is worn engine bearings (usually rod bearings). Best way to find the problem is to have someone put a mechanical pressure gauge on the engine and read the actual pressure. If it's low you need to go into the engine to determine why. if it's normal, replace the sending unit. Senders aren't terribly expensive and you could just buy one and replace the one you have, providing the engine isn't tapping or knocking.

Engine light came on

You should never drive with a red engine light there is always the risk of further damage to engine,this could mean no or low oil pressure driving like that will damage the engine. Check oil level first check coolant level and get back to me.

Check the oil levels in the transmission, if it is low, this will stop the gears engaging, hence not driving at all, this is a safety mechanism on the transmission, DO NOT OVER FILL IT WITH OIL, this will destroy the transmission

Car promblem

Sounds like your oil ran low and the pistons and rods are runnig without oil. This will seize the engine check your oil if it is real low put some oil in it and try to start it. If it starts you got lucky. Tahn find out how you lost all your oil before runnig it to much. If the engine doen't turn over than your motor is no good.
