2006 6 liter V8 Vortex Chevy Suburban

 

Hi, 

 

Does anyone know if that rig would have a oil screen that sits below the oil pressure sender? 

 

"Needs oil pump". 

 

Maybe just the oil screen, or? 

 

(Nor referring to the pickup screen in the pan)

I'm thinking about buying this rig. Its advertised as "Needs oil pump". 

 

Might be worth picking up, if it has the oil screen. 

 

If it does not have the screen, then its probably bad bearings or something.

I don't think the screen was introduced until AFM was on the 2007+ Suburbans.

 

Grab a VIN and plug it in at GMPartsDirect or GMPartsGiant and look it up.

The oil pressure issues combined with the lifter issue screams oil screen. Or the motor is shot.......

Lifter maintenance means it needs a new motor or an overhaul.  Buy it cheap and plan on a motor.
