My brother is driving his 26' travel trailer home right now. he has oil pressure above 60 while on the throttle, but as soon as he lets off the throttle the LOW OIL PRESSURE light starts flashing... Any help or Ideas would be good.

Probably has bad injectors. They may have dumped a load of diesel into the crankcase which dulited the oil.

He says he checked it cold this AM and it was full.

does it smell of diesel? could have a bad cluster, but could have bad injectors too. what year truck?

biggmatt · 06-21-2009, 01:23 PM

what other symptoms would he see, fuel on dipstick? running weak?

biggmatt · 06-21-2009, 01:24 PM

He has a 2003 LB7

biggmatt · 06-21-2009, 01:27 PM

if he has a bad injector or something, what then?

Normally all 4 on that side need to be replaced...or are replaced. If it is injectors and they fail for what special policy 0439 states he is covered under a 7yr/200,000 mile warranty with NO deductable (check my garage i have an older copy of it there). You wont see the fuel on the dipstick, just see the halo on the paper towel. And if it smells of diesel, its time to have it looked at.
