I have a 2.5 L 94 sundance, I am burning oil, how often should I check/add oil?

I don't think a 92 sundance will shut the fuel pump down when the oil pressure is low, but it might. Can you get it to run on carb cleaner. If it is oil pressure, the car should start then run a few seconds and die. Have you checked the timing belt? If it broke the distributor will stop turning which would stop the oil pump.

All I can think is that there is fault with the type of oil or the oil pump mechanism or oil pressure switch or oil pressure relief valve. When cold the oil is viscous and the pump will have little difficulty in maintaining adequate oil pressure. As the oil gets hot its viscosity is very much reduced and flows with ease and the pump has to work so much more effectively to maintain pressure. The speed of the pump is governed by engine revs so as you 'press on the gas' that pump whirls around making pressure. As soon as the engine revs drop the hot oil slips past the pump vanes and the pressure drops. Remedy: Use a 5/40 or a 10/50 grade oil. These left number indicates viscosity when cold (5 is less viscous than 10 when cold) and the second number indicates viscosity when hot. If you live in one of the northern states and suffer very cold winters try 0/40 grade as this will cause less strain on the starter motor, battery and oil pump when starting in the cold. Try and choose a large figure (45 or 50) for the second number as this indicates a higher viscosity when hot, a good thing for older engines with greater wear and tolerances. I think it is no coincidence that the problem you have seen started immediately after you did an oil change and this should fix it. If this results in no joy check out the pressure relief valve in the engine block: a tired or broken spring will not allow enough pressure build up. The oil sender is probably OK but "if in doubt change it out". All the above are relatively inexpensive but if they fail to solve the problem its time to look at the oil pump assembly. This should be accessibly once the oil sump cover on the bottom of the engine is removed. You'll need a workshop manual, some good tools and an extensive vocabulary of expletives to call on. Enjoy!

SOURCE: (1995 Voyager )The oil dipstick has two holes on

That's what it sounds like.I have never heard of a maker using holes to determine levels,but it does seem that it would be more noticeable come to think of it.(are the holes next to each other or about an inch apart?If an inch apart,I would say add oil,about half a quart.For a definite answer,call a dealer,the technician will answer it for free.Good luck!

SOURCE: 93 plymouth sundance.....what is the

Hi, you have to first of all take your car to the nearest Auto zone around you to make the car scanned for any code. If the car produces any code, the code will be interpreted to detect the cause of the problem which will eventually lead to a solution.
Or else we will only be doing a trial and guess job in trying to resolve the problem which may further complicate the problem....

SOURCE: I ran my car with old gas (2 years old) then it

The old fuel could have clogged the fuel filter, pump, lines and/or injectors. I'm not sure about the code on your model but I believe it refers to the circuit that supplies power to keep your radio presets and clock set when the ignition is turned off.
