Default ticking in motor
I have a 99 ram with a 5.2 I just did a oil change and know any time I go over 3000 rpm my oil pressure gauge goes to 0 and I get I ticking sound in the motor. If I shut the truck off and restart it back to normal and there is no ticking

Do another oil change and try a diff brand filter first. Then if no improvement replace the oil pump and pick up tube.
