Default No Start/Die

Will a bad oil pressure sensor cause an engine to die like turning the ignition off, or not start? Working on multiple problems and trying to eliminate items.

best place to start is to get a fuel pressure gauge going to see if it stays up......you get a 2 sec burst each time you key on, so starting shouldn't be a problem....

Its an intermittent start/die so its been difficult to see exactly whats going on. Ive heard a bad oil pressure sensor can cause a no start situation so Im just trying to eliminate possible problems.

You need to go through the basics Codes, spark, injector pulse, & fuel pressure.
