    Do motorized bicycles count as powersports?

    2003 Tahoe Z71 5.3 - oil pressure switch?

    I'm pretty sure my pressure switch failed last night. Pressure is just sitting at 80 when the car is on. Decided to look on Amazon because I knew these sensors have a bigger socket size that I may not have. Here's the question. Does my truck have/need that little filter on the right...
