So i was riding down the street today in the crx. Was not pulling it hard just driving it home. The car started running “weak” and would not go over 3k rpms. I pulled over quickly and looked at my oil pressure gauge. No pressure. I got out of the car and looked over the engine. The timing belt is still in tact, the AEM gears did not slip, the engine was not knocking, or leaking anything. The engine will start right up but there is no oil pressure reading on the gauge. I got it towed home so i would not damage the engine. What do you guys think? Its a b16 block out of a 2000 civic si and a b18 head out of a 96 gsr. I am thinking it may be the oil pump taking a shit, but i dont know why the car would go “weak”:wtf: Any help would be great!! ---

then again who knows if that is even hooked up on your car. first thing id do is find out weather u have a mechanical or elec. guage. then if its mechanical, make sure the line isnt like kinked or broken or w/e. if its elec. ull need to find someway to test the sending unit ---
