  • Low oil pressure on your 4.8, 5.3, 5.7, or 6.0 GM LSX engine? This oring could be your problem.
    Here I will replace the oil pickuo tube oring and oil pan gasket on a 2006 GMC Yukon Denali AWD with the 6.0L engine.

    Helpful video, bro. Even if the o-ring isn't cracked as yours was, it's still wise to get it done while you're there. Your tip on disconnecting the coils to prevent a dry start was also helpful. I appreciate you taking the time to make the video for us. Will be doing this job on our '03 XL soon.

    I’ve done this on a 5.3 and a 6.0 both 4 wheel drive. The 5.3 I did from the top while I was doing a top end rebuild/cam swap. The 6.0 I did from the bottom just like this video. 2 of the most annoying things about doing it from underneath is 1. You’re laying on your back lol and 2. Dropping the diff. Otherwise the pan removal/install is pretty straight forward along with the O ring replacement. Any time you have timing cover or oil pan off of your LS engine of ANY MILEAGE replace the darn O ring lol

    I have to do this to my '05 truck (4x4,) 4.8. I dread it. Getting old and lazy, I guess. Just have to do this in the driveway. I noticed two things about your work that shows you are not a beginner. #1, you broke the small bolts loose by hand, then used power tools. #2, starting bolts by hand.. It only takes one lesson of breaking small bolts off using a impact to break them loose. (transmission pan bolts, oil pan, valve cover, etc.) Power tools have their place and are a work/time saver but you have to know when and how to use them. I wish I knew where you live! I'd drop it off with a note late in the night. Thanks for the info! Very good advice on the RTV in the corners.

    Thanks for the video. I just did this on a 2004 yukon denali, the ticking went away that I've been battling however my oil pressure didnt change- was ok before 25-30 psi hot idle 40-60 psi while driving. Ran everything from amsoil to mobile 1 to cleaners and atf through oil. This is what fixed my tick. The o-ring was misshapen but not as bad as yours. Good luck to anyone performing this.

    I just caught this video, and I know it's been awhile. If you still have that vehicle. You can easily run a half a quart to a full quart of transmission fluid in the engine as a normal course of action. The seals will love that. ATF has seal conditioner in it. A lot of it. It will also keep the inside of these engines quite clean. Another thing that you can use on that engine is the pf61 ACDelco oil filter is considerably longer with more filter material in it. And it fits perfectly on that engine. Any extra length version of that filter also fits on it. I've always been a fan of using the best oil filter you can find. If you can get a purolatorboss in the size that cross-references the to the pf61. I think the 3975 is the Fram equivalent, that's an extra cross-reference for you for the purolatorboss. Good video.

    We did this same process this past monday on my 2005 Denali. I bought the pump with the tube on 2020 and was constantly with the oil pressure low message.
    2 mechanics told me the motor need to be repair because the damage caused by the low pressure. So I did my research and saw several videos explaining this problem and procedure, we did it and the problem was solved.
    Some things were not done that I consider they would be helpful at the momdnt:
    1- the o ring was not lubricated
    2- The coils were not disconnected to "charge" the pump.
    3-the old o ring was replaced ith rhe new one that came installed on the new oli tube, but then saw that the pump came with two different o rings. The bad one was red and the new one is red, so I assume ghat is the same becsuse the other ones have different colors and the diameter is a little different.
    We use 10W 40 oil with no additive, for now.
    Other than that, is running like new with 207k miles. Took more than 5 hours to do this job.
    From estimates of near $4000 to $350.
    If someone need the pump with the pick up tube, just let me know. All you need is the o ring that came installed on the tube.

    Great video! Just a quick comment in relation to your technique mentioned at the 8:35 ish mark. You don't need to unplug the coils to crank the engine without starting...all you have to do is hold the gas pedal down while cranking and the engine will crank over but will not start. It's a built feature in most if not all GM vehicles.

    Hate to say it, my 2006 LS 6.0 had a stuck dip stick. First methods: Locking pliers to rotate tube nothing, so locking pliers smash the tube 3" above hole and air hammer the pliers, breaks off flush. Second method: tap holes with M8 tap, with M8 bolt and nut and socket tried to jack it out, kept pulling threads so retried tapping 2x more times fails. Third method: remove oil pan, brass punch and hammer from the inside was bending the tubing, so inserted a M8 bolt into the hole to give the thin metal support, air hammered it out and it worked. It was legit air hammering for 3/4" of an inch. What a nightmare. This took more time than swapping out the exhaust manifold and removing 1 broken bolt where I brass brazed a nut onto it.

    I ruined my 6.0 in my 2008 Suburban. We purchased a 2008 K2500 Suburban 6.0 in 2019 with only about 16k miles on it. We had several electrical problems. About October 2021, with only 42k miles on engine and the oil pressure turned off a couple of times but came back on if I hit a bump. I parked the car, spent weeks studying TH-cam videos which stated it was oil sending unit or oil pump. I talked to several mechanics who insisted it wasn't the oil pump but not a single one knew about the O-ring issue. With the prior several electrical problems it made sense this was another electrical problem and engine was still getting oil. I drove the vehicle a few blocks prior to taking it to the dealer for repair and it shut down on me, I towed it home. I ruined the engine. My O-ring wore out due to age, not the miles. Pretty sad that GM designed an engine that something like that can happen. VERY DISSAPOINTING. That was our 3rd Suburban. We bought a 2015 Suburban and will be selling the 2008 as is soon.. It will cost $10k to have the engine pulled, rebuilt, and replaced. If it didn't have a history of being a lemon I would fix it.

I use the jack as a saftey to the jack stands and lay a piece of plywood down underneath to lay on and harbor freight puzzle mat pieces to extend that to awkward spots. I just finished mine at 1130 last night and the thing is sitting out there on the board and stands with no oil in it waiting on the rtv to cure while its pouring out cats and dogs. Least you have an actual driveway. It could be worse,.... you could be me.
      Fingers crossed this SOB don't leak on me later when I fill er up with oil and run it🤞🤞! Cuz some dumb ass took an impact gun to my oil cooler bolts and transmission to pan bolts and stripped one of each so I can't torque one of the transmission bolts to spec and the one oil cooler bolt feels like if I give it even another half of a quarter turn (1/8😂) its gonna let go.... so I'm leaving it alone and praying 🙏..... if it don't hold I'm into doing the whole job in the mud again and having to buy another entire oil pan because some idiot decided it was a good idea to ugga dugga steel fasteners into aluminum! So that'll be another full day and another $150+ depending on if I can reuse the oil pan gasket after getting it in contact with RTV. 🙄😮‍💨😤

      There are different color orings depending on what pickup tube you have. You can google it. Also oring replacement is not a guarantee fix if you have other issues. Mileage, bearing wear, and oil pump condition all play factors too. Verify pressure with a scan tool if you can. In theory you want atleast 10psi for every 1000 rpms at operating temp.

    Also do you still use the same recommended oil? Someone I know that “lives and breathes LS’s” and actually does a lot of work on nothing but LS’s said on these older ones you have to start using 20W-50 after 100K miles
    For context I have a 2002 Escalade with a 6.0 LQ9 (I think)

    • @4LaneBlacktop
      @4LaneBlacktop  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The engine was not really making noise, the oil pressure gauge was reading low. The repair was initially for a leaking pan gasket. As far a using a thicker oil with a engine with a bunch of mileage that should be fine. 20w 50 might be a bit much but 10w 30 should be ok.

    Thank you for this video, this is really helpful. I have a question if you don’t mind, does low oil pressure that is being caused by the pickup tube O ring cause ticking noise just like if it is a bad lifter or a bad camshaft ?

    • @4LaneBlacktop
      @4LaneBlacktop  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Low oil pressure will cause ticking. The top end will be the first part to suffer as it is the furthest point away from the oil pump. On these ls engines, the cam bearings start to go first under low oil pressure.

      4Lane Blacktop I’m sorry if I’m asking a lot I just don’t have much experience, my truck is 5.3 and has this ticking problem, how can I make sure that the problem is the pickup tube O-ring ? Are there any more symptoms? because when I took the car to the mechanic he told me it’s the camshaft and I should swap the engine or replace the camshaft, someone told me replacing the oil pickup tube o ring has fixed his car so I don’t know what to do now, I think the mechanic was trying to deceive me and take a lot of money😭. Please help me

      Yes, do a oil flush, get K&W/CRC 5 minute engine flush or LiqiMoly engine flush, flush engine, drain, replace pickup tube o ring and pan gasket.
      It fixes 4.8-6.0, Id say it does so on LS1 as well.

    Great job ladd, I have a question about that extra relief or bypass valve in the oil pan. I have had a long road on a 6.2l yukon xl. I did the sensor when I did lifters. I also changed the oil pump and O-ring without taking the pan. And I still have oil pressure drop to zero after about 10 mins of idling. So I hear this bypass valve goes bad. Did you inspect yours when you took pan down and I seen some guys replace it with a bolt. Just take it out all together. I have to attempt this job in the winter here in Jersey. It’s not a 4 wheel drive. The 1500. Do you have any thoughts on this POS bypass valve in the pan? Thanks for the video cheers 🍻 Kevin

    • @4LaneBlacktop
      @4LaneBlacktop  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Im not exactly familiar with the bypass issue you are having but I would think that the bypass is in the oil pump. You should probably hook up a manual oil pressure gauge and verify the actual oil pressure. Many things can cause low oil pressure and this o ring is just one of them. Excessive bearing clearance is also one too and with these gm ls based engines the cam bearings can be the cause also. Many things there to check.

    • @kevinfraser640
      @kevinfraser640 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes the bearings, definitely a possibility. But this bypass pressure valve I have found out that is inside the oil pan, goes bad, very similar to the blowoff in the oil pump, I didn’t even know about this. But Melling makes the part and a new designed part in addition that saves on oil consumption. On the oil pan it is located over by those two holes for the oil cooler. I replaced the oil pump, the O-ring on pickup tube, the oil pressure sensor and screen. If the truck is started from cold start, there is oil pressure of 40lbs. After 10 mins it goes to zero and alarm sounding. Shut it off and wait, start again oil pressure goes up. And repeat. So I am at a loss. I don’t want to take all this apart to look inside the oil pan but it seems like there is no other option. Idk what else could cause this. So give this oil pan internal relief valve a look and if you ever take a pan down replace that part. It feeds the VLOM on top. Cheers Kevin

    • @kevinfraser640

    • @4LaneBlacktop
      @4LaneBlacktop  ปีที่แล้ว

      @Kevin Fraser it would have to a a pretty good sized leak. Also, I have a buddy that owned a machine shop. He said that he only used oem gm oil pumps on the ls series engine because he had problems with aftermarket ones. I believe there is actually a shimming process for the oil pump also.

    • @kevinfraser640
      @kevinfraser640 ปีที่แล้ว

      Wow, I think I used a Melling oil pump. Was a straight forward bolting application. I also changed the pick up tube O-ring from that point too. And added the second bolt even on the pickup tube flange. It’s about two years old, hard to believe the new pump went bad or the O ring again. I have oil around both sides of the oil pan. Even though bolts don’t feel loose at all. The oil cooler I think is leaking. I don’t see oil from a rear main seal. I’m drawing at straws. The corners of the oil pan leak traditionally, maybe the pick up tube is even picking up debris and blocking the tube after ten mins of warming up. Hard to explain the drop . If you look at your video of pop Pam down you will see that like 1/2 inch valve in corner. Ugh, thank you so much for answering 🍀

      Yes it’s exactly the same. I have the 6.2 and am in the middle of the super low oil pressure that collapsed the lifters. Did the lifters and after a week the oil pressure dropped to bell and siren ringing shut the engine down. I got the O-ring and oil pump off. My O ring 193,000 miles was flattened on sides. And a slight crack in it. Not a smoking gun yet. Maybe it’s the blow off valve sticking in the oil pump. Another typical issue. But when Autozone finally sends it to me I’ll replace and let you know if it fixes the problem. I still wonder why, does GM use just an O ring that fails, instead of using both bolt holes on the pick up tube with a two hole flange and flat gasket that seems to be a better way to ensure there’s not such a failure.
