New k&n oil filter, every gasket and seal on the new (used) motor was replaced no expense was spared, and as far as I know, no leaks. And I put 7 in if I remember correctly, I didn't have enough $ for the last qt

Where is the sending unit located?

Also, it's not driven as there are a few odds and ends it needs before I am comfortable putting some miles on her. But I have driven her about 10 miles since the new motor was put in and have run it every other day since and it JUST started out if nowhere
========================
New k&n oil filter
overpriced -
save your money and get a BETTER filter -
go with a WIX or ACDelco filter -
I have just filled her up with royal purple-
I put 7 in if I remember correctly, I didn't have enough $ for the last qt
just like the designer filter -
very pretty color - but way overpriced -
and very little - if any - benefit -
save your money and stick with regular 5W30 oil -
the display reads " oil pressure low. Stop engine"
three possibilities come to mind -
the used motor IS worn out -
and can't develop proper oil pressure -
the crankshaft pulley had been removed -
and the mounting bolt was not properly tightened -
resulting in low oil pressure -
defective oil pressure switch -
it is located next to the oil filter -
I have driven her about 10 miles since the new motor was put in
and have run it every other day since
running the engine for a few - even several minutes every other day -
is far worse for the engine than just leaving it sit -
