If by some chance the oil pressure gauge is correct, and you are only seeing 20psi to the motor, i wouldn't be out romping on it. It's enough pressure to keep things from ticking but not enough to prevent damage

yea, but the gauge right now is not reading at all. Once you start it it goes to 50psi then drops to 0.

So go to autozone, by their cheapo $20 oil pressure gauge, disconnect yours and connect that one up in the bay and see what you really have.

I find it weird that both gauges go fubar at the same time. Stop running the engine til you find out 100% if the gauges are messed up
