Oil pressure light on!! Help?

Post by alsgro »

Hi.

I hit a pothole a while back and got a weird ticking noise coming from the bottom of the engine...

I just replaced my oil pan. Took the pump out but it seemed fine, so I reinstalled. Even took it to Mark Allison (sprit animal).

I primed the pump when I put everything back together, but I can’t get the pressure light to go out. Been cranking it a lot, but no dice.

Any ideas, friends?

Ok, yeah... I'm dumb. Don't try to get oil pressure with the front end on jack stands.

Lesson learned. Had to dig around a little to find it in the archives.

All better now.

Stand down, all.
