She said the engine made a funny noise then the Check Gages light came on and oil pressure showed zero.
As previously discussed years ago, she got off the road, shut off the engine then called me.
I told her not to start the engine but call a wrecker to bring it home....AND DON'T START the ENGINE.
My load leveler and I were in the Smokies when I got the call. I told daughter to drive the Bravada until her truck was fixed.
When I got home, I found no oil on the dipstick and the top oil cooler line on the radiator had come loose so I snapped it back in place and poured in 4 quarts of new oil.
I disconnected the coil wire and cranked the engine with the starter a few seconds, no noises
I cranked the engine again until oil pressure showed 50psi, stopped cranking then cranked again until oil pressure showed 50psi then connected the coil wire and started the engine.
No noises and smooth idling
Still running good and that oil cooler connection is safety wired.
