Over the weekend, my 2000 3500 van dumped all its oil
My mechanic spun on a new filter, started up the motor and within minutes the filter blew off
Waiting on a new oil pump, but my mechanic warned me that it could need a new motor, as he had this similar problem with another van recently
I could see the oil pump valve being closed and building up pressure and causing the filter to blow but the engine being done???
The van has been running great, no oil leaks, only 105K miles ( but it does have a PTO)
I'll know tomorrow, I guess if the new oil pump solves the issue.
Do you think my mechanic is trying to make his mortgage payment on me this month? :shock:
