Oil flow. still no dice.
Hey guys a while back I posted a no oil flow issue... some of you responded with some greeat tip and comments. Thanks for that. Now I have attempted to repair the issue after determining that it is not a sensor. and NOW it is not the oil pump either becuase I swaped it out. I am still getting no pressure or oil flow. none at all. I started my car up after repacing the pump and filling it with oil and the oil filter never even got one drop of oil pumped into it. What am I looking at here? a blockage somewhere? can shot bearing cuase oil flow to stop completly? recomendations or comments.....
I wonder if the pick up is intact. Or maybe plugged. I've never heard of a pickup tube falling out/into the pan, but I could see it happening.
I went from a 530WHP GTR to a 220HP GTi-R, but I'm still smiling....

i second the check on the pickup, u might have a crack in it somewhere or it could be clogged with something or it could be broken off or the pan is dented in the wrong spot?
Turns out it was a dented pan. I took it off and bashed it out .... worked great. Thanks for the comments. and special tanks to nick for the solution.
