Just changed the oil pan gasket and rear seal on my 98 r/t earlier. Just fired it up and my check gauges light come on and now I have NO OIL PRESSURE at idle. Oil pressure only starts to rise above 3-4k rpms. I had great pressure before I started. I reused my old oil pump and screen. I made sure to prime the pump before I put it back on. Torqued the main caps to 85ft lbs. I let it run for about a minute and there was no noise that I could tell. Maybe the oil sensor is bad but it would be strange for it to go bad all of a sudden. Any ideas? I should have just replaced the pump and screen. When I dropped the pan, there were no metal shavings on the screen or in the pan.
