Yeah that filter looks bad.Looks like there is some sludge in the filter - could be the filter is pretty clogged. If the pressure comes back to normal right after a filter change, then that makes sense.

I’ve l cut the 48E core open from my 4.8 Silverado. I’ve used them exclusively. However, I just bought a couple of 48Rs and will start using them. Seems like you cant go wrong.CapitalTruck: the new Chevrolet Malibu’s come with a E Core AC DELCO Filter. I can cut one open soon and post it for you
I think that when it occurs for a little time after cold start, that's pretty normal. But if it occurs when hot, maybe something wrong?My only concern has been a persistent lifter tick (sounds like just one) that pops up whenever it's hot in drive. Van runs like a top otherwise, but I can't believe how much lower the oil pressure is on these LS engines compared to my SBCs of the past. I wouldn't want to have to rebuild it or replace it, it looks like it wouldn't be much fun to get it out & back in again (as are most vans).
It's probably the Ford Typewriter Tick ... aka the BBQ Tick.I think that when it occurs for a little time after cold start, that's pretty normal. But if it occurs when hot, maybe something wrong?
Never heard of that before, but apparently Ford has made a statement that it's completely normal and no repairs should be attempted.It's probably the Ford Typewriter Tick ... aka the BBQ Tick.
Sorry, I thought he had a Ford but see it's a GM, so not the BBQ Tick.Never heard of that before, but apparently Ford has made a statement that it's completely normal and no repairs should be attempted.
