bad oil pump?


Recommended Posts

oil gauge started doing some weird stuff... reads low all the time after the engine warms up.. but i just changed the oil and its full.. and when i stop at a redlight or coast out of gear it shows no oil at all... wtf?

Sounds like a bad sending unit, are the lifters clattering at idle when the gauge reads low ?

 

You could hook up a good mech gauge for a quick test while you have the sending unit out

Yea, my ca will do that sometimes too. it's just the oil pressure sender.

Is your car pushrod or OHC? I know the sender for the 3.4 is different by like 10 bucks. :bash:
