So i think pellet stove repair was a success. No strange behaviour after i got it fired up.

Think im done chasing oil pressure issue with the silverado. Dont push play button it dont work
so i did some reasoning with myself and decided an oil change was the cheapest shot in the dark. Oil pressure after changing and run up 20 minutes and mech gauge is actually a few psi lower, and gauge on dash is considerably higher. I thinking oil filter was dirty, restricting flow.
Its an improvement nontheless.
Hacked up old sender to make the metric adapter,then battled for an hour to get gauge connected.

The war is not over...
Huh?
Ugh, I need to start a giant group PM. Hang on.
14. Don’t sit down to eat without posting sentries.
15. Don’t sleep beyond dawn. Dawn’s when the French and Indians attack.
16. Don’t cross a river by a regular ford.
17. If somebody’s trailing you, make a circle, come back onto your own tracks, and ambush the folks that aim to ambush you.
18. Don’t stand up when the enemy’s coming against you. Kneel down, lie down, hide behind a tree.
19. Let the enemy come till he’s almost close enough to touch, then let him have it and jump out and finish him up with your hatchet.
I stopped up the toilet today. It was a masterpiece.

Just talked to my Brother, he said they were drowned rats and cut off from I5 by all the flooding. Sounds like a mess for sure. He is in Elma.

Hey what do you know, my stylus made it here, Christmas Miracle lol!
We are still waiting on an Amazon package that was supposed to be here Dec 8th... it still hasn’t shipped yet.
Yeah they got smacked pretty good over there, last couple of days.
That sucks, so much for "fulfillment"
It was just a stocking stuffer

Just the facts, ma'am

Lost me Frank. We're seeing like 40 kPa gage and 40 psi on the mechanical gage. That doesn't make sense. Is the mechanical gage after you changed the oil filter?
Same time, pictures within seconds of each other,dash was showing what sensor at back of block was seeing and mech gauge was in a fitting just off oil pump. Pump and relief valve doing their job. Im assuming filter was causing pressure drop. As same warm up done after oil/filter change yielded better pressure.
Lots of reading and a ton of youtube videos didnt help a whole lot. Figured it was worth a try before pulling intake and dropping pan.
This was a cheap test.
