Ok, I know this is stupid. I have radiator stop leak in the oil of my 2003 GMC Yukon. It was late at night and dark at my workplace parking lot and I reach for a new container of engine ring sealer. I didn’t realize that there was a container of stop leak in the car. I should have known as soon as I poured it into the oil that it was not ring sealer because ring sealer is a thick as molasses and the container emptied to fast. But I didn’t realize it until I started the engine and immediately the bell sounded, and the pop-up stated low oil pressure. It took about a week for me to have the Yukon towed to Jiffy Lube. They were the only ones that said they could do an engine oil flush by adding solvent and pumping it out. It didn’t work. I them drove it about two miles to my local mechanic and he said there was probably nothing that could be feasibly done to fix the engine. He said he had known of someone years ago that use Coked cola to clean a cars lifters and it supposably worked. What the heck, I bought the Coke. It didn’t work. Still no oil pressure. Anything that can be done. Could it be a sensor problem? The Yukon has 200,000 miles on it and is in rough shape otherwise, so it is not worth much., but is a good spare car to have around. HELP!!
