not kicking in...

i have custom wires that run from my motor to my ecu. on the outside, and i had a friend in the passenger seat last night where the wires are, im thinking somehow he accidently maybe kicked off the wires from the ecu.

but is there a possibilty that my oil pressure is dropping??

motor - B16a jdm

When did you notice than stop kicking? did you check those ecu wires?

im a fuckin noob at wiring.. all i see is, i got like 2 red wires running from (its located at about under my distributer) thru my fender into my ecu. they were both connected right and shit.. so im guessing its my oil pressure switch

how can i check my oil pressure?

Hook an oil pressure gauge up to the oil pressure switch mounting hole.

At running temp it should read 70kPa (10psi) @ idle and 350kPa (50psi) @ 3000rpms.

is this hole 1/8th inch NPT? or is it M10X1.0?
