I've turned motors by hand before, and it seems like it's just more effort than usual to get it to turn. But I was sorta happy to find that it wasn't just completely locked up.

I really wish I was logging the car to see what the oil pressure reading was at the time. One thing I did notice, my oil pressure sensor seemed to have oil inside of the connector. I cleaned the connector out and let it dry for a while before plugging it back in. I checked oil level 3 times before driving, it said it was full to the top. So I know oil was full. But I wonder if somehow the oil pressure sensor went bad and was just giving a false reading to the DME preventing it from going into limp mode. Idk.

Then again, I could be having an issue totally separate and my mind is just going to the bearings after doing this ofhg replacement. I didn't look at it today, too pissed off still lol. So tomorrow I'll hopefully have more answers.
