It also wastes around 2 quart per monthYeah
Bad oil pump or low oil..
290k probably has most of them miles on that engine so burning oil I’d wager
Shaking at idle could be a burnt wire, bad fuel pump, plugged filter, list goes on.
There’s a lot more info needed and some trouble shooting required.
Yes almost 2 quart per month becausr it also leaksis there oil in it?
It's fine but when it comes to a stop, gauge drops to 0 and it shakes badVerify with another gauge that you get no pressure. How is the pressure at speed? (1500rpm+)
I use 10w 40 high mileage oilProbably a bit of extra bearing wear so tolerances aren't what they used to be.
Not a bad idea to try a thicker oil to help cushion the gap between the bearings. If you're running 5w-30, try 10w-30 or even 10w-40.
In my truck with its motor, I like to run 15w-50
