agree, check switch. I trust a dipstick before a switch.

your stock oil pressure sensor doesn't go through EMS. It is a simple switch that grounds itself when it reachs 20-30 psi! Either you didn't reconnect the screw on the end of the sensor, it is broken, or there has been catastrophic failure... the usual signs would be present though with catastrophic oil pressure failure though...

actually come to think of it i didnt connect the screw in all the way, it was loose and i was getting the check oil light coming on and off all the time.
Until i tightened the screw
