Oil Pressure Problems At Low Idle
How do I test the oil pump performance other than at the pressure sensor mounting hole? I'm trying to determine why the pressure drops significantly at idle but goes back up to 60PSI while driving. This just started.
Also, is the oil pump located on the front of the engine near the water pump on the 2001, V6 model? I have received confusing info as to location.
Thanks
