If you only need it when your slowing down that means you were out of oil in the pan or darn near out or your baffles aren't working. we had a customer who put his own engine together and had the same type problem,when we took the mail order pan off the problem was clear,the baffles were installed backwords so they delayed oil from returning to the pickup. a non offshore pan fixed the problem. if your pan is ok next time the engine is apart you need to fix the drain back issues and that problem will go away.Bill
