Hard to find Ls Engine Knock? Watch this!
This video will help you determine if you have a cam, lifter or both that is coming apart. This is so common on ls engines. Like the 5.7 hemi the cam or lifter begins to spall and they wipe out each other. This will help you understand the process to diagnose and fix this problem. Good luck!

Fastest Extended Cab Silverado on the planet? Dart 427 98mm
Переглядів 3 тис.Рік тому
This is a few runs down LVMS at street car super nationals November 18th 2022. Not the fastest she has run but close. The final pass where I snap my trans was my best 60 foot ever. It was a 1.366 where as before my best was a 1.375 We were on a record pass as we had never run over 27 pounds of boost but this time we were commanding 31 pounds. Stay tuned as we will break into low 8s next year. I...

Too much hp and a lot of weight = tons of carnage. Whenever someone tells you their trans can handle x amount of hp, ask yourself why they rate it that way. Big hp numbers don't kill your trans. Its one component of the factors. Hp is just a rating of work done. The real three killers are torque weight and traction.

    I have an L96 engine that shows no oil pressure at the sensor. The engine is not making any ticking or knocking noise. I even pulled the sensor out and started it and no oil comes out. I looked down in the hole and there is no screen in there. Any idea what might be the issue?

    I wish i had seen this video earlier, far more informative than the others i found on here when i was searching. I've been chasing a knock for years in an Alloy L98. I'm in Australia so its in a 2007 Holden VE SS commodore. I have spent a lot of time and money replacing everything to no avail. Last week i pulled the engine and stripped it down, found the cam bearings are stuffed, worn but luckily the didn't spin and my oil pressure wasn't catastrophically low.. Anyway its in the machine shop now for new cam bearings and a measure so hoping after all new gear the problem will be solved...The one good thing is, it has a lot of good parts in it now.

    Great video and explanation. I really appreciate your thoroughness I have a question about mine you did not cover. On my 2006 LS I have great oil pressure when I start it. I have about 40 PSI then goes down to 8 PSI after 20 minutes. I have replaced the O ring and oil pump. could that also be the cam?

    Definitely interesting. I have a 4.8 with 300,000 miles on it that generally has good oil pressure except on very cold days. On very cold days it will have almost zero oil pressure until it gets warm and decides it wants to act normal. I am swapping in a 5.3 aluminum block that I am going over completely. Do you think it will be obvious what the problem is when it is apart? Pressure relief sounds like a good theory. Maybe o ring shrinks in the cold. I am not sure I care really, but I want to take all precautions with the new engine to prevent this re-occurring. Also, is there anything that can be used to supplement the O-Ring on the pickup? Would silicone be worthwhile? JBweld?

    Hello my engine when it warms up and about 30 min the engine starts to lose oil pressure slowly after about 60 minutes I have to turn off the engine because then the oil pressure becomes critically low, but when the engine cools down I get the oil pressure back or when I accelerate in neutral gear the oil pressure comes back at high rpm, I wonder if it could be the oil pump or motors worn in the cam bearings? to give more info the engine is not leaking oil and the pressure on the cylinders is quite good, the engine temperature is also good

    i am at this stage with a 2013 AFM DOD lt silverado and just found the #4 intake lifter collapsed and inspected the cam and saw 'spalling' on it the lifter roller itself is just collapsed solid with the beginning of drag spalling on the roller so <eye roll> 123k miles but at 100k i was getting random 1-3 times a year stabil track auto disabling and had no idea why. when you get stabil track and traction control disabling, your about to lose oil pressure within 10-300 miles. i had a 2000 silverado also that had lifter noise on warm up, now i know why the original owner took it to the dealership and traded it in, i bet he took it to service first and heard the price tag on the repair and just decided the trade in value was better on a new truck. i still have that truck bought it with 113k and it's got 320k on it, but at 280k it was getting misfires and the lifter noise was alot more constant, but i knew nothing and just changed the oil which came out fine but started to get black before 3k miles. lucas high mileage synthetic helped it with the lifter tick since 150k when i first decided to see if that would help which it did considerably. idr why but the synthetics are just more slippery and for longer than conventional and keep the oil golden for longer. now i know what it means after watching a few of these afm dod issue videos, that's the first sign you have a lifter beginning failure the stabil trak warnings. normally i shut that stuff off when i start up in the winter because i'm a snow plow driver and i know how to drive in snow better than those woman driver aids can help, which actually interferes with compensating in snow and ice. but they are great for woman drivers because the feedback will scare the living hell out of them and make them slow down keeping them out of the ditch mostly. i drive like an old grandpa or F1 driver kimi riakkonen depending upon the traffic.

  • @ElectricBillAlbright

    I have a question about the priming of the pump. Will this type of (gear pump) pull oil up the pickup tube on its own? I have an 8.1L (496cu.in.) Vortec in a 2001 Silverado Dually. Some idiot tried sabotaging the engine by stabbing the oil filter. Before putting the new oil and filter on, I took the drain plug out to drain any old oil. Nothing came out. Also, I should have mentioned how I found the issue. I was backing the truck up after being parked for a couple of days. Then the chime went off rapidly warning me and I immediately saw the information display lit up red saying severe oil pressure loss and low oil level. I immediately shut the engine off and coasted it about 15 feet back to where it was parked. I filled the new filter with clean synthetic oil and filled the engine with the 7-something quarts it normally holds. I got the thinking that maybe the pump will not create a suction to draw oil up into the pump. I have seen several videos using a garden sprayer pump to prime the pump and the entire oil system. The port that they use is the one on the drivers side front of the block. Well, that's easy when you have a block on an engine stand. So, I found a plug at the back of the block that appears to be in line with the front plug. It's near the filter. It has a square hole for a four-sided bit to go into. It is a square 8 mm bit that fits it. This plug is stuck in the block hard. It's in a hard-to-reach place with an exhaust manifold connection right where you need to put your ratchet/breaker bar. So, the other idea is, I decided to go through the oil pressure sensor port. Then, more thinking I did! 🤔 😂 Will pressurized oil get down towards the pump from this port? I think the "barbell-dogbone" may prevent oil from going in that direction. I think it keeps the oil in the upper half of the engine from running back into the pan each time you shut off the engine. That would mean that my idea of priming through the sending unit port is not going to work. I did take all the spark plugs out and I cranked it over watching the oil pressure gauge and didn't see it come up. I may not have done it long enough. A video with a guy from GM says it takes a while and even tells you to let the starter cool off in between. I drained about 3 quarts of oil to allow for pressuring it with the garden sprayer and I noticed that the oil is fairly dark and it's making me think that it was pumping oil during the cranking. I think what I am going to do next like right now! Is unscrew the new filter that was filled with new oil and dump it into the clear plastic tote thing I used, and see if the oil is dark at all like it's mixed with residual oil in the engine. If it's anything but clear clean oil then it's pumping and hopefully, when I start it, everything should be good. I'm long-winded too! 😂 Maybe you can suggest or tell me if the pump had enough residual oil or if the block would have enough to run back into the pump to be able to draw it through the pickup tube. It never made any engine noise like lifters. I shut it down immediately when the loss of pressure happened. I'm positive it didn't do damage and the truck wasn't under power other than idling in reverse. Great video and I learned a bit about the ports/plugs for the oil system through your video. I think the engine you have in the video has a little different plugs around the oil filter area but I guess the systems are the same as far as the routing through the block. Thanks again for your great video! 👍👍👍
