little or no oil in oil filter

38promodMember

i have been a tech for 42 years & have been ase certified but ran into an unusual problem. i have noticed that after setting for several days the lifters will rattle bad on start up & will continue sometimes fer 5-10 min. - i changed the oil yesterday & noticed that when i removed the filter there was little to no oil in it. i filled it with oil when i installed it & the lifter noise quit after running for app 1 min. after setting overnight the noise was back & again the filter had little to no oil in it. the oil pressure is between 45 & 60 psi on start up & stays there . if anyone has had this problem & knows a solution i would appriciate your input - thanks - steve
