Still tryin to get my 88 running
My car was stalling out once in awhile..no engine light on.. every once in awhile my engine light would flash on.. now when it was on I did have a service operator check and code 36 came up mass air flow sensor..
I took it to a garage and had the oil changed mass air flow sensor cleaned and ICM unit put in the distributor the car won't start now I had two tone home from the garage..
I then put a brand new mass air flow sensor on.. mass air flow sensor relay and burn off switch....no luck !!
The car would start for about a minute then died out..
I put a new fuel pump on .. new fuel pump sock the changed the fuel filter.. fuel filter relay..no luck!! Car starts for a couple minutes and dies out.. it appears the fuel pump is not coming on until I then reset the computer in the car then the car will start for a couple minutes and die out...
I read online that low oil pressure will cause a fuel pump to shut off is that what I'm looking at since I just had the oil changed...
If that is the issue will changing the oil pressure sensor and oil pressure switch fix my problem..
I'm not sure if I have low oil pressure I'm just saying I read online low oil pressure will turn off the fuel pump what else could it be I'm lost here please help!!

I would double check the power to the pump. Often the ground gets screwed up when replacing pump. Also your oil pressure should be good if you just changed the oil. But I would not rule out a bad pressure sensor. I’ve bought 3 for my LT1. And they all read different pressures. I might try an A/C Delco from Rockauto next. The sensors seem pretty cheaply made and are prone to falling apart.
