no still dont have it hooked up
ima try and go to a shop tomoro and get it done

That light comes on when ur pressure is low low low, so you should check it out and make sure u have enough oil in ur motor

 

[js_protege_03dx]

[xDJ DUBx]

[js_protege_03dx]

ok i got my oil pressure guage hooked up
the pics r when the car was warm and it was at idle
it was about 30 degrees outside too

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Seems normal, how about when you drive? It should be pretty responsive under gas to your rpms, doesn't really go higher than 60psi when the car is fully warmed up.

The oil pressure sensor might just be bad, causing the light to flicker

 

[js_protege_03dx]

o forgot to mention bout the light, i had a knN filter on their, changed that out too and no more flickering light!!

EDIT: when u say pretty responsive, would u say kinda like a boost guage?

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Wtf, thats really weird. lol.

Yeah, just not as quickly as a boost gauge moves.

[ScratchNSniff]

I would say it is probably due to how hard you drive that thing...although it is turboed, it is not a red light racer...

 

[js_protege_03dx]

i wasnt even drivin it that hard!!! ive been actually takin it easy tryin to get more miles outa my tank, while occasionaly punchin it

 

[SCMP3]

like i said lets see if u cant just replace the bearings before jumping into replacing the motor again. may save u some money

 

[justanothermp5]

you might need a new crank if you spun the bearing, or at least have it turned and use oversize bearings

 

[js_protege_03dx]

not to mention if the block is damaged to? idk i got it towed to TDC today, the guys over there r goin to check it out for me for free, i think... ill let yall know what they say.

o btw, dyno night is rescheduled for march 20 and its gunna be $20 for 3 pulls!!!!!!!!!!!
