I've had a problem recently with oil leaking from my 5.0. I tried to determine where it was coming from, but I couldn't tell for sure.
I ended up taking it in to a shop today, they replaced the oil pressure switch and o-rings on the drain plugs. Cool, I thought, problem fixed. Well now I don't have any oil leaking anymore, but a new problem is happening. After about 5 minutes of running, the ''check engine" light comes on and stays on. If I turn the engine off and back on again, the light will go out for a few minutes and then come back on again.
The engine runs fine, the only difference I have noticed is that the oil pressure gauge reads much higher now. Would this cause the engine to throw a code?
I'm taking it back in tomorrow, I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this happen after changing the oil pressure switch.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
Thanks, Glen
