I'd think that you could hook up an oil pressure gauge in place of the vtec oil pressure switch.
This model doesn't have a pressure switch just a bolt in its place. Do I remove the bolt to check the oil pressure? Thanks again, I will shoot him a message for ideas!

The 96 shop manual that 10 mm bolt can be removed to attach a pressure gauge.

With the solenoid unplugged, you should have less than 7 psi pressure. The solenoid has 1 wire going to it (green/yellow). If you give that wire 12V, the pressure should be greater than 36 psi. The testing procedure says to test at 1000, 2000, and 4000 rpm.

Thanks for the info!! Can this test be done in park/neutral or does it have to be in drive?
