how much oil at top end at idle
Hi guys,
Thought I'd run this question by yous.
I have kinda low oil pressure in my 94 T/A LT1. At idle maybe 20 lbs or something like that. So i had the hood up idling the other day and i noticed a ticking noise from valve covers. Definitely not exhaust leak. I took out oil fill and looked at the rockers and springs with flashlight. I noticed there is 0 oil squirting or trickilng out. There was a tiny bit of oil pooled on head but hardly..Oil level is good but I noticed its pretty dirty and watery.( I just bought car, previous owner said he changed oil right before he parked it 1.5 years ago.) I plan on changing oil this weekend but was surprised to see no oil seeping out..... Any thoughts??
Maybe I should pull motor, do cam, roller rockers and supercharge it while im at it. no jk.... thanks
