Hey Matt==It is on the pass side of the engine just above the oil pan screwed into the block. You need to have a manual gauge installed long enough to see if the gauge in the car is accurate. If you still have low or no oil preasure with the manual gauge, the oil pump or other things are bad. GoodluckJoe

Also you might want to check your oil to make sure it is up to the fill line. That will also stop the fuel pump from working. A bad sensor will cause a no start problem because it sends a signal to the fuel pump if it is working properly and you have correct oil pressure. If it doesn't send the signal, no fuel will be pumped to the engine.
