'97 3.0 auto w/ 20,000miles after rebuild. 10w30 oil
when cold oil pressure is good (thick oil)
when hot oil pressure bounces at idle (thin oil)
oil pressure returns at or above 1,000rpms
when its acting up there is a grown/deep humm comming from the motor
when this started the mil was triggered, cyl 1-2-3-4 misfire
the cam syncro is new
I can feel a lack of power but no miss
mpg cut in half about 8-9mpg
what the hell am I missing?????
the oil pressure, noise and the misfires are all connected.
Any help is wlecome, and thanks....
