Oil warning light - car wont start
Hi!
I recently build my car, i adjusted the valves and the camshaft.
I also filled all liquids, including the motor oil, but for some reason, when i turn on ignition, a red bar appears right under OIL.
I've double checked, there is fuel and it is not leaking.

I can briefly start the engine before it shuts off, kind of like an explosion.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!

The oil light always come on, when the ignition is put on.

To me, it sounds like the camshaft isn´t aligned correctly.

Maybe it hasnt to to with the oil, but when i start it, 2-3 seconds later a big CRANK can be heard and i cant start the car anymore?

Could be the camshaft not aligned properly.
Or did you try start it before you aligned the camshaft., so the rockershaft is broken.

My rockershaft is fresh and new and i have already adjusted the valves.
My camshaft is also alligned.

Did any of the pistons come out?

No, not from what I can see.
Do you want me to add a download link for the save game?
That way you can check it our for youself?

Yes, that would be nice.
Would be quicker to find the problem.

Don't add the 2 backup files btw, they are old versions of the save.

The rocker shaft is broken, and the engine needs oil.

And if you are using the editor, the wear value needs to be at 100, not 0.

I just checked and before I start the car the rocker shaft doesn't look to be broken, and I used the dipstick to check the oil and there is a fair amount in there?

Everytime I turn on the car, the rocker shaft is damaged, now i see
