Guys,
I have recently rebuilt my 1.3 sierra.
For some reason i can;t get oil pressure.
I have filled oil filter, and screwed on. Filled engine, taken plugs out and cranked over. No oil pressure.
I have unscrewed oil pressure sensor and pumped oil into the cavity, and repeated above steps, no oil pressure.
What do I need to to now?

Just had a mate look over it.....accidentally filled the engine with petrol, vacuum line and fuel line was attached by my bro, wrong way round. Dropped oil and new filter, all fixed and running. Not sure what the engine will be like on the inside though...
