  • Questions on a 2.8

    As of a few days ago, my car seems to almost flood out when switching threw the gears, I have also noticed it is idling hire then it was, and now my oil pressure reads 80. I know that is high, but why? Any ideas?

    how do you know its flooding? could it be starving for gas and stumbling? the oil pressure thing I'm not sure there.. could be a bad sending unit

      That's very possible, they were not exactly the most reliable. Mine used to randomly peg to 0 while idling, and if you flicked it, it went right back to the regular reading of 30-45 psi, or whatever it was

        As soon as I hit the gas after shifting is when it does a little sputter, but then goes to all beat hell... And I think the oil preside gauge is wrong
