Well I still have the oil pressure problem. It idles at a little over 20psi and when im moving its at 40psi and when I floor it its about at 75psi. So is this the pump or another problem need to know before I buy a new engine.Thx Ben

has motor ever been touched? if so O ring might be pinched.
i doubt pump is going bad, the new ones only possibly thing that fails is the spring.
what oil weight are you running?
what is mileage on truck and what oil filter are you using?
checked oil recently and notice anything on the plug?

it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference
Mine does the same thing, only at idle its at 40psi. at WOT it will climb pretty high. I thought this was normal.
20 isnt normal

The motor is stock never been touched
10W30 Mobil 1 Synthetic
Mobil 1 filter
And theres been a build up of this carmel looking stuff under the oil cap.
And it has 97000miles
I also have the caramel looking stuff. I had to remove the baffles on the valve covers and there was a lot of this stuff. Maybe this is the crisco problem I have been having?
does the plug look like any metal on it? does motor make any noises? is the oil psi always this low at 20 when at idle or did it recently start hapening?Originally Posted by GenIII_4Ever

I just recently change the oil just a little metal i mean a tiny tad. And it just started to happen, along with my coolant disappearing after 4-5 days but that started to happen this winter when I started to use the heat.
Is this what the caramel stuff you have looks like?
Yes
