No oil pressure after oil change
Oil pressure was fine before oil change. Changed oil, and now oil light is on and after market oil pressure gauge is at 0. There are no leaks and there is no oil coming out of any of the oil lines. The only thing i can think of is that the cap for the oil pressure relief feel off inside the oil pan. Let me know what you think.
ZC engine w/ 600 miles on fresh build and turbo. New pump from Honda, oil cooler, and relocated oil filter installed when built.
Here is a picture of the old pump, and you can see the allen head cap which holds the pressure relief...

Re: No oil pressure after oil change
You know it does take a couple to build oil pressure back up after an oil change...it's not an instantaneous thing. Pull the ecu fuse and crank the motor until you see pressure, then put the fuse back and drive.
