What's up TRS community, long time lurker, first day register.
So here's my problem:
My oil pressure has a tendency to drop real low, and the needle wiggles below L when I floor it, or when I attempt to pass someone on the freeway.
It drops when I hit 3.5k RPM or higher, and it bugs me. It does the same when I had a mechanical gauge installed.
I'm not burning oil, and just had an oil change about 300 miles ago. I also just changed out the spark plugs and wires, which helped a previous misfire problem.
Has anyone had this issue, or have any clues as to what to check? I bought this truck a little over a month ago, and this is probably the only big problem.
Thanks, Don.
