I was having problems with the car knocking badly on startup, lasting for a minute or two and then going away. Took it in and was told the lifters failed because of a leaking intake gasket. So they replaced the gaskets and lifters.
Picked it up about an hour ago, and on the drive home I noticed the oil pressure gauge was fine when I was driving on the highway, but as soon as I slowed the pressure dropped to about 30. Before I started having this problem, the gauge was always dead center at 60, no problems. I'm thinking after a repair like this, the oil pressure gauge should not still be jumping around. Correct?
It's a V-6 Camaro, 2001, just turned 96,000 miles.
