I have a 1998 GMC K1500 Z71 offroad with the Vortec 5.7L 350ci V8.
Cold air intake
True dual exhaust (no cats, dual in/single out Magnaflow muffler)
Nothing else done to the engine this far.
Idle is 600RPM, my oil pressure fluxuates from nearly 0 at idle and back to normal at WOT. Not sure why this is happening, started happening more after the exhaust was done (cats removed). Never burned oil until today (April 12, 2014). Started burning oil for about 5mins, then stopped and hasn't since. NEED HELP!!! This is my only vehicle and I am going to university right now so don't have enough money or time to fix major repairs. I'm hoping it is something cheap and simple! CEL/MIL is on for O2 Sensor since cats were removed.
PLEASE POST ANY SUGGESTIONS AND/OR EXPERIENCES OF THIS PROBLEM!
