here we go again something else rong with my car this time my oil light is coming on but when I check the gage it is almost at the 80 mark but when I just got the car in park its at the half way mark and it keep goin up and down so I went to autozone just now and they said its my oil pump if it is which oild pump do I got because he told me there a 4 or 5 somthing hole I have a 93 z28

thanks for all the help I feel like if Im buying a new motor

 

does the oil light stay on when the car has warmed up and you crank it?

 

Your going to let someone at Autozone diagnose your car? "it keep goin up and down" is not descriptive enough.

BTW, ever hear of sentences and punctuation?

 

This may be all too simple, but have you checked the oil level via oil level indicator (aka dipstick)?

 

only oil light i know if is the "low oil" light, and thats the level in the pan not the psi, far as i know the pressure getting low would set off "check gauges."

 

dont take it the rong way but I dont care about sentences and punctuation you still understand what I was sayin but WS6T yea its the low oil light and I know for sure my oil is full I just got a tune up like 3 weeks ago and no it dont come on when I start my car also I never warm up my car because of the getting hot thing the guy at autozone didnt diagnose my car I just told him what my car was doin and he told me off top my oil pump is going bad and it not getting enough pressure so can you guys tell me some signs of what it my be

 

if thats the case and you have made sure your oil level isnt low with the dip stick instead of just taking it for granted. then you need to check the sensor in the drivers side of the oil pan and make sure its plugged in good. if it is then you probably need to get a new one installed. i'd wait till your next oil change otherwise you're gonna be doin it anyways when it runs all over you.

there is nothing wrong with your oil pump the guy at az is an idiot.

 

If you don't care then you are limiting your ability for others to effectively communicate with you in finding out what your problem might be.

 

...and that is exactly when I stop reading. I'll go on to another thread where something makes sense. Later.

 

1- check the oil level on the dipstick.
2-check the sensor plugged into the oil pan
3- check the end play in the crank

 

If you have that little concern (or respect) for the people who have to read your posts, why should anyone bother to try and help you? And no, its extremely difficult for anyone to comprehend what you have written. It seriously reduces your chances of getting help, and limits the number of people who will even try and help.

Your choice. Think about it......
