ETQ diesel engines have a low-pressure sensor
system where if the oil pressure drops too low,
the sensor will shut the engine off. The purpose

does not seize up. If there is not enough oil in
the engine, the temperature of the oil will be
raised too high. On the contrary, if there is too
much oil in the engine, the engine oil can slow the
engine down considerably.
