Need Advice- 89' throwing code 27 for MOP, starts then dies
Hey guys I just put a new engine in my 89' GTUs and it won't stay running. It starts, runs for a little bit then dies and throws code 27 for the MOP.
I have the page from the FSM and am going to do the tests tomorrow if weather permits(I left my meter at work).
I can see the OMP is pumping oil into one tube though so I'm going to assume it's bad.
I'm thinking of premixing, but how am I supposed to run premix if the car dies due to the OMP not working?
How do I get the car to run with a bad OMP, for testing purposes and premixing?
Thanks in advance for your help and anyone who's had a similar problem PLEASE chime in.
Take care,
-Ian

I had to do the same thing, and share your pain on that one. However, MOP prices are ridiculous, so if you're considering moving to a standalone or RTek, and can't find an MOP for a reasonable cost, I'd say do it. If the S5 NA 2.0 had been out when mine failed, that's the route I would have gone.
