Oil pressure lower than usual

[opiefavors]

Oil pressure seems lower than usual. 2000 3/4 ton Yukon XL. Should I be worried about this I'll do the oil change in the meantime

I've never need my trucks pressure that low before, I'd be looking into getting the oil pressure confirmed!

Have you done fresh oil change?

 

[opiefavors]

Not yet its freaking cold. I need to do it soon smh.

Ehh 5PSI is minimum at idle.

If you have 20PSI hot idle and you're due for an oil change that doesn't seem too out of wack.

Change the oil and see what happens

Still seems lower then usual. But it's acceptable. Also as soon as I touch the gas it jumps up.I went ahead and took it to the Mobile One Lubeand got a standard oil change.I usually use Valvoline max life I'd prefer Valvoline DuraBlend but it's very hard to find around here. I know mobiles a good oil and I had a pretty good discount. I also cleaned the PCV valve, I need to put a new one in there. I got a lot of moisture under the oil cap and there's a lot of moisture on the PCV valve. I hope this isn't a bad sign.

I don't know why my pictures are coming up upside down strangest thing ever.

that last pic is what my 6.0 reads at hot idle. i wouldnt really be concerned about it.

Took a few long trips in it after cleaning the PCV valve. There isn't any more moisture under the oil cap. So I think the combination of too many short trips and a clogged up PCV valve may be what was causing it. Also the oil pressure seeped to jump up a little more, not much but its not bouncing now.

Did your "Check Oil Pressure" light ever light up on the dash?
