Oil pressure

[Mwyant 00]

I just put a new vp on my truck and after doing so my oil pressure comes and goes as. I can start the truck and i will work fine the i will put it in gear go down the road and it will go to 0 psi until the next time i take off from a stop. I have checked the sensor under the vp and it seems to be good. I am going to order a new sensor, but i was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and what they did to fix it.

I figured that was what i was going to need to do but hoping it was something else. do know that can get it out and back in with out pulling the vp.

Oil pressure is not under the Vp that is cam position sensor. Oil pressure sensor is on the side of the block down close to where the stock lift pump is.

Sounds a whole lot like a broken wire to me, and ditto on the location, it is not under the VP.
