Oil pressure low
Oil pressure low Hello guys, I got my ls1 tune today and the tuner told me I had low oil pressure at idle and low rpms it its around ~20 when I get on it creeps up to no more than 40...back then before I broke the oil sensor behind intake and replaced it with a advance auto sensor it use to sit right at 40 any help.... Also There's this knock but I. Think it's my header hitting the k member ...very tight clearance there.
Thanks,
Thanks,
Looks to me you might have a bad oil pressure sensor. Try swapping it out.
Based on the design of the oil pump. Very unlikely to be bad, it really cant "Fail"
Another possible answer is you spun a bearing.
Hopefully its just a bad sensor.

But the knock is still an issue then if my oil is flowing...it sounds loud on top and not bottom

Yes I got a duralast from autozone but my dash showed at 40 before and I pulled and it increase now it plays between the 20 line and creeps slowly to under 40 plus the knock after the wideband tune
I'm going to take off my valve covers and check my valve train...What do i exactly check for is there ways to check or if something is loose it's bad? If everything looks good i will get an ac delco OP sensor and change the oil to mobil 1 5w-20 (have castrol 10w-20 all synthetic)...if nothing i will have to pull the head for lifter check is there a special way to remove the lifter (aside from removing the head) does it just come straight out?
Thanks
Thanks
Well it's not the lifter revved it about 4000 to hear the sound and it just stopped it turn off no weird sound or anything just Pfft now evry time I try to start it it cranks for1-2sec and then stops
Now on to something new 383 the ls1 or find a lq or. Ls2 to 6.6l I'm planning on huron ac kit. Just going ***** to the walls now I was planning on going slow step by step first turbo then fix engine then lower compression but not anymore >
Idles at 60 warm??? what is it cold? 75?...I guess proof there that the stock gauge sucks.
I have a brand new LS in my car. Idles warm at about 40psi, 1200-2000 RPMS, about 50 PSI, WOT about 60-70 PSI.
I have Autometer gauges and sensors.
