vtec would solve all of your problems.  
come talk to me if you want a reliable gauge.

Check the wiring to the sensor (not sure how those honda’s are exactly setup). That could be the issue. I’m with everyone else though…get a cheap oil pressure gauge for assurance.

thanks terry. i thought about wiring too, but i was kinda thinking it was one of those things that either worked or didn’t work. i don’t know a damn thing about hondas. my room mate thinks it’s a bad sensor too though.

my mx6 had a similar problem when it over heated one day and some of the oil turned into black cottage cheese in some area’s.I just bought a few cans of motor flush and changed the oil after a week and repeted that one more time and it went away and never came back. Id pull the valve cover and check for any cloggy old oil build up anywhere.

that’s actually a really good point. this started shortly after i over heated real real bad picking up haenszel from the airport. i might try that.

update: i drove the car earlier today around the block a few times. ran fine. it pulls like normal. i didn’t get on it hard or anything, just drove it like i normally do and it felt alright.

if the oil pump was bad, i’d imagine i’d hear some real loud lifter tick. i don’t hear the lifters at all short of putting my ear next to the valve cover.

i was just browsing H-T, and i found a thread where the guy has the EXACT same issue i’m having. no one has responded to it yet, so i think i’ll bump it for the guy. i’ll post anything up they say on there.
