Search for the FSM and use that to find the wiring diagrams.

Maybe try using full words, the half *** typing makes me not want to attempt to read it.... Just a hint as it might help you get more help.

How exactly did you measure the oil pressure? 45 psi sounds too high.

I had a push button starter on my old car, the easiest way to do it is:
1. Go to pepboys or your local parts store and buy a horn button.
2. Run a 12 guage wire with an inline fuse from the battery to one terminal of the horn button.
3. Run a 12 guage wire from the other side of the terminal to the terminal on the starter solenoid.
4. put key in "on" position and push the button, be careful because this also bypasses your clutch safety switch.
Ill write a diy on it with pictures when I do this to my car.
