izuzu bighorn 4jb1t oil pressure light and oil leaks
got an 89 bighorn with 4jb1t keeps breathing oil out of rocker cover into intake and oil pressure light comes on at idle i have changed the pressure sensor and removed the rocker cover and made sure all was clean and clear of crap even put new spring and diagraphram in seperator on rocker cover but still no better the strainer on the oil pump is clean as was the sump so im out of ideas for the present anything else to do or try?

Re: izuzu bighorn 4jb1t oil pressure light and oil leaks
how is your oil consumption? sounds to me like you have quite bad blow by.
one way you can check is get the engine up to temp and remove dip stick. if there are alot of fumes coming out ie blue smoke then your rings are gone.
how many kms have you done?
there is a special breather kit you can purchase to help reduce the amount of oil being put into breather.
where are you located?

I have the same truck ... same problem
over 200ks everything worn out including the oil pump
The answer ... Overhaul or replacement time ...
Re the gauge they are not much good at the best of times, I am going to fit an aftermarket one
There is no mechanical problem so difficult that it cannot be solved by brute strength and ignorance.
