Hey guys checked oil today and needed to add some as it was super low. Any now my oil needle fluctuates if the engine is reved it goes up at idle it drops. It's in the white area on the gauge and i want to make its nothing serious as my D has to stay running as long as possible. Any input would he greatly appreciated.

 

First,make sure you aren't overfilled and you added the correct viscisity.
List the info on your truck.Y/m/m engine size etc. They can target specific
info on your issue much easier knowing this....
Also,in the DIY section,ther's a few good threads on oil and levels,types etc. It'll give you some insight on the Mopar engines and what they require...

Its the 5.2 v8 and i added the correct weight to it its just something that has started occurring and i'm hoping theres no damage done

 

as long as the oil pressure stays between the two hashmarks (one for low and one for high) you have nothing to worry about, the needle does move around in that range on almost every truck i have driven. (it moves with engine speed of course, not while sitting at idle)

 

Thanks Sharp also coming home my speedo froze at thirty and the tranny seemed like it didnt want to shift.

 

The trans will act slightly different without the vehicle speed input, but not much. I am having problems with my abs module which is sent in now that sent my speedo whacky and caused the brake pump to run constantly. Needless to say I have to drive my truck without the abs computer, which means no speedo. It sounds like the two problems are unrelated IMO.

 

Froze @ 30 or wouldn't go higher? Rear VSS handles 0-30, VSS(driverside trans) 30+
but they work together....

DId you go ModuleMaster adukart? I don't remem.

 

i should also add that its late in shifting from 2nd to third when speedo sticks
