[QUOTE="1960Fc170, post: 1530118, member: 31464"] I dropped the pickup tube when I had the pan off I didnt drop the upper oil pan though. Oil was clean didnt find anything in the pan. When I drove it home oil pressure was good at first then check gauge light came on and gauge in the dash showed nothing this was going down the interstate at around 2200 rpms when I let out of it pressure would come back on the gauge and light would go off. It seemed as if I kept it below 2100 rpms I was good. Then it did ot again awhile later and the rpms that i could run with out losing pressure kept getting lower until it finnaly had none and quit running. That was what I was seeing from the dummy guage in the dash. While I've been working on it since I've been using a mechanical gauge to get an actual pressure reading and verify that I do have a problem. It had the new lpop and a new oil cooler when this happened. I started checking everything once this happened and dropped the pan and checked the pump and cover and that's when I found the silicone in the cooler from the use of it on the filter housing base. And replaced it with an OEM and all new gaskets but didnt solve my issue. [/QUOTE]
