I may be wrong on this but i am pretty sure you need the kent moore adapter tool to check pressure on these engines. I have tried to do it through the sender port, but it has a really funky thread pitch to it.

IF YOU HAVE A LOCAL DEALER.... GO TALK TO A HEAVY LINE TECH... MOST OF THEM ARE COOL AND WILL CHECK IT REAL QUICK FOR YOU IF YOU DROP THEM A 20 OR SO

Did You Hear Any Noises From The Engine When It Went To 0 Oil Pressure? You Should Hear A Lifter Tap Or Something.


Also I Have Seen Some Clusters Go Bad And The Oil Gauge Reads 0 Or Sticks.

Also I Believe You Should Have A Switch That Kills Your Fuel Pump If Oil Pressure Is At 0.

Don't start it up anymore until you get the oil pump replaced. Hopefully that'll fix your problem but i wouldn't count on it. You may get oil pressure back but i'll be willing to bet you'll have a knock still.
