My lifters on my passenger side are not pumping so I figured it was the oil pump and my gauge says zero for my oil!

Did you replace the pressure valve. I might want to check that. The right side pumps last so if they aren't pumoing up I am betting on the pressure check valve in the pump.....If that is OK then you have a blockage in the oil line. there is no easy way to fix that. Can you prove the pump is actually turning. or maybe the connection into the drive has broken...

Your oil pump went out and the car still runs OK? Are you sure you know what a oil pump is and where it is located? When a oil pump goes out your engine is gone real quick. Just ask any race car drive when they lose one of their high priced engines over an oil pump.

When you changed the pump, did you prime the pump and the oiling system prior to starting the vehicle? If not, then you basically destroyed the pump because it needs to be primed prior to the first use.

You need to get the car to a shop, don't drive it have someone with a truck pull you in or call and have a tow truck haul it in for you, if you don't watch it you will blow that engine

If the pickup screen is plugged it will cause this.
