> Summary: ENGINE BUCK, SURGE OR NOISE - OIL PUMP DRIVE GEAR WEAR. *LDG
Wouldnt a failing oil pump drive gear show up on the truck's oil pressure
gauge? It has always been at the same marker on the dash and doesnt even
fluctuate when this loss of power, bucking, or noises occur. Paul, did your
truck make any extremely odd noises when your truck had the problem? Thanks
again, I think(with your help and everyone on the DMLs help), I am getting
closer to figuring out what the problem is. Lately also, last two days or
so, my truck has been idling at 1000rpms(rough at that), something it NEVER
does. It always idles at 600-700 rpms. The scanner will be in on Tuesday.
