If you remove the inline filter below the oil pressure sensor, seems like the debris will migrate down to these screens and then created a major problem. Hoping others can shed some additional light on this.
What kind of oil pressure sensor do I Need?
I’m having the same issues and I just had the sensor and filter done last year….sensor is reading 6psi pressure while the truck shows no sign of low pressure. Wondering if there’s any point to having that little tiny filter in there.
What is the filter screen on a GM valve lifter?
The screen (see illustration) is actually a filter for the valve lifters on those GM applications equipped with AFM. The purpose of the filter screen is to help control contamination that can affect the AFM hydraulic system by filtering the oil that flows through the valve lifter oil manifold and its related solenoids.
How does a VLOM oil pressure sensor filter work?
The older style VLOM is assembled via bolts hence me being able to disassemble and take these photos. The newer replacement is pressed together and can’t be disassembled so not sure if it has these inner screens.
