Drain the oil and refill with just the same oil. Marvel Oil is some thin, sweet stuff and will clean much of the residue of oil off motor parts. 10w-30, new filter and drive. You can remove the oil pressure sensor and fit a gauge at the spot. Filter could by-pass the filter until warm, so go with the reading when engine is warm. What year is the car? I'm not sure which year the cylinder-heads changed to omit the small oil tubes for the camshafts and went with a newer design of internal oiling ports. 90-91 years,I believe was the change. Saabsite.com sells these parts. Could be if your car has these, a fitting may be split and oil is leaking, causing pressure drop. You'll know when the valve cover is removed.
