I can't get any oil pressure when starting up or flying. At start up it occilates between -1 and 2. If I go ahead and take off, following all take off procedures, after about 1 or 2 minutes my radiator is hot 140 degrees and soon after the engine is on fire and dieing. Going to the hanger appears to fix everything but still no oil pressure. This just started the other day. Has anyone else had this problem? If so please advise. Thanks

After you've fixed it, go to fuel and payload manager (SHIFT+4). Refill your oil supply (and other fluids as well, coolant included). You're probably out of oil. Fixing the oil pump and oil lines won't help if there's no oil to be pumped or leaked.

Thanks for your quick reply. Right after I wrote this post I discovered the Fuel and payload manager and realized I was out of oil. I guess I thought the guys in the hanger would have topped off the fluids. She's flying now.
