Can i run my 2005 Yukon 5.3l with 8 quarts of oil in it
My oil pressure is zero with 6 quarts. Before putting it in the shop it was zero. I did the test where you add 2 quarts of oil and jacked the back end of the truck up and oil pressure was normal, indicating a bad pickup tube o-ring. The shop did rhe work and said it was ready. Picked it up...- cuttingedge

I can buy a pressure tester. I honestly thought about using a manual gage (assuming the pressure is...- cuttingedge

2005 Yukon 5.3 oil pressure issues. Please read, I need your help
Hi. About 3 weeks ago I drove my Yukon to the Vets office. When I started it up, it read zero oil pressure. Stabbed the throttle and pressure went to normal. Thought the oil sending unit might be faulty and replaced with ACDelco part. Same issue occurred. After some research, I added 2 quarts of...- cuttingedge
