I changed from the Ryco back to a geniune filter and it was fine. Put the Ryco back in just to check and it did it again.Im not saying that's the problem, just something else you could try, as ive never seen it happen before.

The Converted Donating Members 344 Member For: 13y 7m 26d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 11/03/13 06:36 AM Share Posted 11/03/13 06:36 AM Ivan; I noticed the same thing when I serviced my car last weekend. Ryco Z9 oil filter used, foot to the floor on the accelerator and the oil pressure gauge wouldn't budge off of 0 after three sets of 5 second cranks. I checked the wiring of the sender thinking that the gauge may be the issue. Went out on a limb and started it as normal and oil pressure was there as soon as the engine was running. Could it really be the Ryco filter or do Autometer gauges just not display pressure until the engine is running?
