Have you wired the oil pressure sender correctly? You probably know where to find it, but just in case: the small metal bell shaped thing just under the distributor. A connector should slide over the round button on top of it.

Unscrew oil pressure indicator, an let someone run your engine with main ignition cable off ( your engine can't run, just reving ) and look at hole where you remove oil pressure indicator. If every thing is OK, when engine revs, oil must bleed. It not - oil pump. Another way, unplug oil cooler, an let someone run your engine, look for oil that cames from tube. 1984 AE 86 Levin hatchback 1989 AE 92 GTi 2004 Kawasaki KLE 500 CROATIA - small country for great drift |

I guess you have some worn out conrod bearings! Beware of that because you may damage your crankshaft. Make a video with the engine running, it may help others to understand! But if the problem is what I suspect, the less you run the engine the better because it needs new bearings.
What kind of oil are you running? Thick oils and low oil pressure tend to wear out bearings. But hey, I'm no mechanic! You should get it seen by one! Good luck Best regards |
