[QUOTE="Genesiss, post: 443845, member: 22628"] So I’m curious why my red oil low pressure light is on, my first thought is because the oil pump was installed on the rebuilt already and aamco didn’t prime it. The other thought is they used a cheap “Auto extra” oil filter that I believe has a poor bypass valve or none at all. I called them as soon as the light came on about a mile down the road after picking it up and they said they saw the light so after replacing the oil pressure switch they assured me it’s the pcm and it was safe to drive home. That was a 11 mile drive through rush hour at about 45 minutes of which the oil light did turn off once for about a minute and turned back on. I am going to go to get a Mobil one filter tomorrow. Any opinions on this issue? I’m thinking disconnect the coil pack and spin the starter to prime the oil pump? If the filter has oil then I assume the pump is working? I hope I have no engine damage already by this recommendation to drive it assuming the pcm is messed up giving false readings. [/QUOTE]
