Default B16A-T help with oil pressure

hey h-t,

hopefully this will be an easy fix if anything is wrong BUT...

my crx has a b16a with turbo in it...it is tuned off s300 by anthony at av-engineering. Anyway, my oil light has come on i believe 3 times, when it does, the car shuts off...dunno why.

im letting the car idle as we speak...oil pressure is a little over 25psi and -17 in vacuum.

ive been driving the car before someone hit me, and it will drive perfectly fine until i slow down enough to where im hardly moving, in neutral...and the oil light will come on and just shut off...now i can just crank it back up and its fine and will drive, but whats the deal?

thx, and im about to drive it again...see if i can possibly make it do the same thing

ill let you know

any suggestions?

oil is full and golden
walbro 255 fuel pump...and no its not going out..brand new
not clogged

possibly plugs? it doesnt break up, so i dont think that would be it


just took it for a drive...RUNS PERFECT ...just idle- it will die out sometimes..

not your fuel pump... the oil pump.. if the oil light comes on oil pressure has dropped below safe levels..

I agree on the oil pickup, drop the pan and take a look and see if everything is legit!
