:helphey guys, im in need of help. so driving from tampa to denver everything was going well. MPG was going fine and the ride was good, no issue with weather...all is well. left Witchita at 8pm last night headed to denver.
well about 60 miles from denver i stopped to get fuel, got back on the highway and i realized that my oil pressue was low, like on the second notch, in the red. i pulled over, stopped the truck(it had been on for about 8 hours) checked the oil and it had pluenty, when i tured the truck back on i had the normal oil pressure, well i kept a close eye on it because i was afraid that something had gone wrong. When i pulled onto my street it dropped again to practically zero. this morning i checked the oil, had pluenty, i took some out and put it in a can so i can take a closer look at it and smell it and im not sure what its supose to smell like. i mean it smells like a trucks oil. it still had what i think is the correct consinsticy a oil should have but not sure if there was fuel in it or not.
what do i do? i didnt have the engine light turn on, so no codes. is there a way i can check of all my injecters with the V2 scanner, and would that tell me if they are bad? if so how do i do it and whats good and whats bad? sorry what seems to be a stupid question but ive never done it and dont want to mess anything up:booboo. i need to be in cali by friday(driving) so i need to get this figured out, i was planning leaving Denver on wedensday morning and i need to know if i need to go get anything fixed. thanks for your help and let me know what i should do.
truck was running fine, no abnormal noises. it was night so i couldnt see if there was any gray/white smoke. i can go drive around today if i need too but i just dont know what im supose to do. please help
