sounds like you didn't listen to me the first time so I will say this only one more time......

Before replacing the oil sensor install a oil preasure Gauge on it and see if it is with in spec....Then replace the sensor......Also did you ground the oil sensor wire to see if your light is working correctly

ok well. i just got an oil pressure guage yesterday and was going to try that today. but how do i ground the oil light to see if its working correctly to test that ?

if you put the oil pressure on back of block and it reads ok then you need to check pressure @ the head (front port) to see if you have enough pressure there.

what pan/pickup combination are you using? if the pan is too close to the pickup it'll cavitate and lose enough oil pressure to prevent vtec.

Ok update oil pressure in head is low and I think I know the problem please correct me if wrong.. Since I pit the ls crank in I had to remove oil squarters and I didn't cap the holes off and that's what's hurting my oil pressure horribly and I need to go cap those oil squart (sp) holes off ?

Update it was oil squarters thanks for the helps
