ive just rebuilt my saph 2wd cossie engine about 1000 miles ago and now the oil light is coming on, on tick over but if you rev it a little it goes off any ideas????
Cheers

 

Did you use a new oil pump mate?

did you use a genuine oil pump?

 

the oil pump seemed ok so just used that 1 again.

 

is the oil light on all the time at idle?
or just when the car is hot?

 

well ill tell ye, reit
jut fitted a new turbo so primed thrbo wi oil then fired her up oil light was on at idal but went off so left it idelin then it cane back on after bout 2 - 3 mins but like a se ye rev it a bin and it goes off??

 

never reuse the oil pump

 

ha bit late

 

Better late than never mate, looks like its got to come out again, for the price of a new one its not worth not changing it, time, hassle, cost,

 

can you change the pump with out takin the engine out??
just looks a bit dogy with the steerin rack thats all????

 

might be the sieve blocked wiv crap bud

 

no dought it mate every thing is brand new.
just found out that i can get the sump off wi out takin the engine out so just going to try a new oil pump!!!
