Re：low oil pressure ? Date Posted：27/11/2013 05:54:26Copy HTML have you tried putting a bag over the engine filler spout when engine is idling? see if it sucks or blows?
the slick 50 might have cleaned the end of the oil pressure sensor so the warning has gone out? I remember having to take the sump off my first dodge with a 4.236 engine and take the oil pressure releaf valve out (sounds complicated but it really isn't) and free it up, yes with some oil and a light tap with a hammer, and put it back again, this cured my oil pressure problem, "Nothing travels faster than the speed of light with the possible exception of bad news, which obeys its own special laws."
