hmm, ok dumb ****. Maybe other passage ways are now plugged with debris? Not sure, but good luck on the cleaning/troubleshoot.

that sucks. sounds like you might need to get the motor flushed to get the debris out if it.

Sometimes it takes a while to build up oil pressure unless you toasted your oil pump. try loosening the oil filter just a little (don't remove it) and cranking the engine until oil flows, they tighten it an run it. Make sure the oil pick-up tube isn't clogged.
