I just flushed the radiator system on the 1984 Olds Ciera and I pinched the electric choke wire under thermostat housing. Line did not break and still has continuity to choke ... but now the car will start but will not continue running ... oil light and choke light remains on all the time ... any ideas?

The oil pressure switch could be affecting the operation of the fuel pump it powers it after the engine starts.
