Exclamation No oil pressure

Just finished my motor swap with a new 22re, its runs but i have no oil pressure. I replaced the oil pressure sensor. When i turn it on the pressure gauge comes off of the peg but its just below the operating arch. what can i check or change without ripping the motor apart again?

i was talking about a gauge.. see if you can get one then check for oil pressure! that will tell you if its the gauge, or not. eliminate the idea of a faulty gauge.

just my .02

Use an oil pressure tester and see what your actual oil pressure PSI is
