The oil pump pressure relief valve is stuck closed. Excessive oil pressure is forcing seal out. That seal is probably in the oil pump body. . I would replace the oil pump. Internal rust is present in the bore and piston of the relief valve and would be difficult to free up. High oil pressure could damage the rear crank seal resulting in removal of the engine to repair. To test my theory, install a mechanical oil pressure gauge into the engine in place of the oil pressure sending unit. Pressure should not exceed 50 PSI on the gauge. Disconnect ignition coil so the engine does not try to run during test. Test using the starter to roll the engine. Oil pressure will build just by rolling the engine

SOURCE: 1992 buick lesabre starts fine.

You check the coils with a ohm meter. They should 6-8 thousand ohms at the spark plug connections. One lead to one spark plug connection and the other lead to the other . It's not likely a coil for stalling. If coil , Your car can still run on four cylinders. It can be a ignition module. It fails when it gets extremely hot. The module is located under the coils.

Use your mode and set buttons on the dash, located to the left of the steering column.

Good luck, let me know.

SOURCE: 1992 Roadmaster Estate 5.7 liter dies for no reason.

Hey I have a 1993 Buick roadmaster also. Had exact same problem. It turned out to be the fuel pump. It was going bad and would work fine then cut off and then back on. Took me 6 months to figure it out. Every time I took it to the mechanic it would work just fine so I put a full tank of gas in it and told him to drive it and it died after a few days. Was a real headach. Hope this helps.

Check the opening around the oil filter outlet and make sure that there is no gasket still on the housing. Fram filters are famous for its gasket coming off and sticking to the surface of the inlet. When you tighten the new filter it crimps the new gasket and leaks all the oil out. I have had this happen to me twice. No more Fram filters for me. Buy PUROLATER. Hope this helps

2002 buick rendevous oil pressure problem

Check and make sure that the old filter gasket is not still on the housing. Fram filters are famous for coming off and sticking to the surface of the inlet. When you tighten the new filter it crimps the new gasket and leaks all the oil. I have had this problem twice so no more Fram filters for me. Buy PUROLATER they seem to be the best and they don't cost much more. Hope this helps

Most likely the battery. Most auto parts stores will check it for free with the hopes that you will buy your replacement from them.

Have the transmission serviced (should be done every 60,000 miles), a fluiid and filter change, there is a good chance this will cure the problem.

Car Runs and Loses Power and Quits Running

Try cleaning the fuel pump filter. Under the seat behind the driver lift the carpet and you will find a round cover with six screws remove the cover. The fuel pump is directly below unscrew the retaining round plate and remove the pump. At the base of the pump is a small filter if it is covered in black muck that's your problem. clean and replace. job takes about 10 mins good luck. please let me know how you got on!
