Is the oil pressure gauge supposed to show pressure without the engine running? I am in the missle of priming the oil system with the starter and I took out the plugs and disabled the fuel and ignition. I cranked it in two 10 second bursts and the gauge didn't move. I didn't want to crank it to much. Afterwards I unscrewed the oil filter and oil poured out of it so I know it's doing something. I thought with the pressure sender right by the pump it would have registered something? Maybe the wire on the sender is bad? Where can I get a gauge to plug into the sender that someone can read while I crank it?
