i dont have an oil pressure yet, i just got done installing my safc so i want to turn on the ignition to see if it works. The safc turns on, but i notice no oil is coming out of my oil feed line, i dont want to hook it up yet bc i want to make sure there is oil coming out. What should i check for? and yes, i turned the key all the way to on position.

 

OMG you're kidding. The motor has to be running for there to be oil pressure.

i read somewhere that you have to get the oil pump working before you start the car to get some oil into the turbo for the first time. please do correct me if i'm wrong.

 

The way to do that is to disconnect the distibutor and crank the motor over for a few seconds. I have always just started the car up and let it idle. Oil should come out almost instantly.

Yeah, you'll just want to cycle the key a few times to get the engine to turn over a bit, that way your oil lines will be primed with oil before you decide to start her up

 

you have to crank the motor a couple of times to prime the turbo before you start the car if its just been installed. Disconnect your ECU fuse and crank it

 

oh god, how embarassing, somebody please do shoot me

 

Heh, it's alright, we all come here to learn.

 

lol, I do dumber ---- everyday. You'll get used to it.
