Hey everyone, first post.
Had to join just purchased a 2000 Camaro Z28 with 75,000 miles on it.
Best story in the book for buying a used car is that as soon as I got it off the trailer the oil pump went out. Now if I hadn’t seen the pressure was good before I bought it, I thought I would have gotten a lemon. It was running great loading and unloading on and off the car trailer. Next day to put it in the garage there was no oil pressure when I started it up, ran maybe 5 minutes total without pressure, rockers were noisy but no knocking or any other bad sounds.
So my question is, owning a LS1 has anyone else had the oil pump go out?
Needless to say, it is at the dealership getting fixed now but I was concerned of the oil pump longevity and what damage that might have been done to the engine.
Thanks, KatKiller
