97 dodge ram 1500snow_angel_777 01-22-2005, 12:56 PM My truck starts fine but once it gets warmed up and you hit the gas my oil pressure drops to zero and the oil light comes on. then when you let off gas to make a stop or slow down truck dies and the oil pressure comes back up also when you let off the gas. it restarts easy after dieing but need to know what is wrong with it any Idea?????? BleedDodge 01-22-2005, 01:01 PM Is there oil in the motor? snow_angel_777 01-22-2005, 01:04 PM yes the dip stick shows it is full BleedDodge 01-22-2005, 01:10 PM What size engine? How many miles? snow_angel_777 01-22-2005, 01:15 PM it is a 318 with a 129thousand miles on it snow_angel_777 01-22-2005, 01:28 PM we did a code check on it and it came up with a code 32. Also oil on dip stick has a gas smell to it and seems to be over full now Bear Claw 01-30-2005, 12:04 AM Sound Like you have bad rings. Looks like a engine rebuild will be needed. Including Heads rebuilds also. MoparMurphy 01-31-2005, 03:46 AM Sounds about rebuild time. The oil pressure could surely indicate worn main and rod bearings. Gas in the oil would be from bad rings and could be thinning the oil enough to cause the loss of oil pressure to be amplified. A basic rebuild kit comes with everything you need to refresh the motor shy of the machining of the cylinder bores. BleedDodge 02-01-2005, 02:05 AM Code 32 has to do with the EGR system. It might be something as simple as a bad vacuum line, causing a bad vacuum leak. That would explain the stalling. I'd put a new EGR valve in it, and have the rest of the EGR system checked. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
