Well if thats the only thing you changed then take the adapter out and put it back together stock and see if you got pressure. Take out the one variable you have just to see

Did it read low oil pressure right away on start up? I hope some metal didnt take your bearings out already from tapping the return.

Is there a restriction in the turbo oil line after the turbo?
If not than you would have a good flow and no psi.

You might have unplugged the sensor when you ran the psi line cd spending on how you ran it.
No oil psi complete zero.
Can happen for a moment while installing a new oil feed line.
But only a second or two.

No oil restriction in the return line. It must free flow.

Soon as you crank it up it says low oil pressure and no restrictions in turbo line but I did get a chance to get to the sensor just after work and unplug it and now when I crank the truck the display says nothing about oil but today when I'm off I'll get a gauge on it and let u guys know

you do a cam swap or drop the oil pan? I've been reading alot about cam swaps and every one says make sure you dont pinch the o ring for the oil pickup tube.....

if you had the pan or pump off maybe you messed up the o ring?

Did you take the pan off when you drilled and tapped it to clean out the shavings? Hopefully you just clogged up the oil pump screen and/or filter.


Take off the oil filter and cut it open.
