Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra. Manual — part 1880

3. Rotate the crankshaft to place the piston in the cylinder being tested at top dead center

(TDC) of the compression stroke.

4. Install the J 35667-A , or equivalent.

5. Apply shop air pressure to the J 35667-A and adjust according to the manufacturers

instructions.

6. Record the cylinder leakage value. Cylinder leakage that exceeds 25 percent is considered

excessive and may require component service. In excessive leakage situations, inspect for
the following conditions:

Air leakage noise at the throttle body or air inlet hose that may indicate a worn or
burnt intake valve or a broken valve spring.

Air leakage noise at the exhaust system tailpipe that may indicate a worn or burnt
exhaust valve or a broken valve spring.

Air leakage noise from the crankcase, oil level indicator tube, or oil fill tube that may
indicate worn piston rings, a damaged piston, a worn or scored cylinder bore, a
damaged engine block or a damaged cylinder head.

Air bubbles in the cooling system may indicate a damaged cylinder head or a damaged
cylinder head gasket.

7. Perform the leakage test on the remaining cylinders and record the values.

OIL CONSUMPTION DIAGNOSIS

IMPORTANT: It may be necessary to hold the crankshaft balancer bolt to

prevent the crankshaft from rotating.

Checks

Causes

Excessive oil consumption, not due to leaks, is the use of 1 L (1 qt) or more of engine oil
within 3 200 kilometers (2,000 miles).
Preliminary

The causes of excessive oil consumption may include the
following conditions:

External oil leaks

Refer to Oil Leak Diagnosis.

Incorrect oil level or improper reading of the oil level
indicator

OIL PRESSURE DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING

Tools Required

EN-47971 Oil Pressure Gage Adapter. See Special Tools.

J 21867 Pressure Gage. See Special Tools.

Diagnosis and Testing

With the vehicle on a level surface, run the engine for a
few minutes, allow adequate drain down time, 2-3
minutes, and measure for the correct engine oil level.

Improper oil viscosity

Refer to the vehicle owners manual and use the
recommended SAE grade and viscosity for the prevailing
temperatures.

Continuous high speed driving and/or severe usage

Crankcase ventilation system restrictions or
malfunctioning components

Worn valve guides and/or valve stems

Worn or improperly installed valve stem oil seals

Piston rings broken, worn, or not seated properly

Allow adequate time for the rings to seat.

Replace worn piston rings, as necessary.

Piston and rings improperly installed or not fitted to the
cylinder bore

1. With the vehicle on a level surface, run the vehicle for a few minutes. Allow adequate drain

down time, 2-3 minutes, and measure the oil level.

2. If required, add the recommended grade engine oil and fill the crankcase until the oil level

measures full on the oil level indicator.

3. Run the engine briefly, 10-15 seconds, and verify low or no oil pressure on the vehicle gage

or light.

4. Listen for a noisy valve train or a knocking noise.

5. Inspect for the following conditions:

Oil diluted by water or glycol antifreeze

Refer to Coolant in Engine Oil .

Foamy oil, which may be caused by a cut or damaged oil pump screen O-ring seal

6. Remove the oil filter and install the EN-47971 (1). See Special Tools.

7. Install the J 21867 (2), or equivalent to the EN-47971 (1). See Special Tools.

8. Run the engine and measure the engine oil pressure.

9. Compare the readings to Engine Mechanical Specifications (RPO LY5 VIN J) or

Engine Mechanical Specifications (RPO LC9 VIN 3) or Engine Mechanical
Specifications (RPO LY2 VIN C)
or Engine Mechanical Specifications (RPO LH6
VIN M)
or

Engine Mechanical Specifications (RPO LMG VIN 0)

or Engine

Mechanical Specifications (RPO LY6 VIN K) or Engine Mechanical Specifications
(RPO L76 VIN Y)
or Engine Mechanical Specifications (RPO L92 VIN 8).

10. If the engine oil pressure is below specifications, inspect the engine for 1 or more of the

following conditions:

Oil pump worn or dirty

Refer to Oil Pump Cleaning and Inspection .

Oil pump-to-engine block bolts loose

Refer to Oil Pump, Screen and Crankshaft Oil Deflector Installation (RPO
LY2/LH6/LMG/LY5/LC9)
Oil Pump, Screen and Crankshaft Oil Deflector
Installation (RPO LY6/L76/L92)
.

Oil pump screen loose, plugged, or damaged

Oil pump screen O-ring seal missing or damaged

Malfunctioning oil pump pressure relief valve

Excessive bearing clearance

Cracked, porous, or restricted oil galleries

Oil gallery plugs missing or incorrectly installed

Refer to Engine Block Plug Installation .

Improper operation of the active fuel management oil pressure relief valve
