So as I understand it, there is a oil pressure/temperature sensor under there next to a knock sensor. But doesn't that just drive the gauges and send info to the DME? Would it really cause the idle/stalling problem?
My thought is this, low oil pressure is locked out for start up, but I believe times out if low pressure does not clear in specific time. This may shut down the fuel pump. This is typically a safety system so if car gets in wreck and catches fire the fuel pump doesn't continue running. Just a thought.
