Oil pressure sensor acting crazy
Hey guys my oil sensor went out right after doing my engine swap, it stays pinned at maxed out oil pressure, if I turn the key to "on" with the car still off the gauge will stay maxed out.
Well I was babying around the engine until I got it tuned now that it is tuned and I can go WOT, when flooring it the oil pressure will go from maxed out to 0, Yesterday it stayed stuck on zero and my oil level on the HUD went blank, revved it up and it popped back over to maxed out and full oil level again,
I know the engine is not starving itself of oil, I also installed a melling high volume oil pump, just curious as to why only at WOT the sensor will go to zero

they are touchy..if you over torque them the slightest bit you run the risk of screwing them up
I recommend doing the relocate and then if you ever have an issue again its an easy swap...

My 04 still has it's original OPS, as far as i know, and believe it or not it's not leaking.
With that said ( watch now because i shot off my mouth it will start to leak ) when the time comes to replacing it I will also do the relocation procedure
