I have noticed over the last few months that my pressure has slowly went down. Around 8 months ago, it was at 30 PSI and then slowly went to 25PSi and now it is at 16PSI. The engine gets extremely hot but the temp gauge shows it is at least 185 degrees

I have a feeling that the oil pump is going bad

Any ideas?
