welcome to 01 :jerkit:
Seems like alot of work, for minimal benefit.
actually not much work and the benefit is to help the oil comsuption that LS1 have
I’ve never added oil to mine. :dunno:
ya, i mean some say of a slight problem, but most of the problems i ever heard of is the 01 Z06s, which are a ls6
did you ever actually check the oil? your intake ports probably have a bunch of oil build up on them. also at the 3k mile mark i bet you would be down on some oil. The trucks do this also
id say a big oil comsuption problem is when the low oil light comes on, other than that, its all normal, or maybe im just used to it for owning a high miles lt1, that left a trail of oil
low oil light doenst really come on to youre about 2 or 2.5 quarts low. me personally i wouldnt wnat to be that low when you only have 5 quarts to begin with. in a truck you start with either 6 or 6.5 [depending] so its not that bad untill you get real low
that light came on in my buddys z06 when he was a quart low
:bigok:
does the oil light come on for low fluid or low pressure or both?
its the low level light that pops up not pressure
i thought that ls1s also ate oil, but the 01 z06s were especially known for it due to something with the rings
