Moncks Corner, SC United States | Coming back from Thunder Beach rally Sunday and about an hour and a half into the ride the oil pressure light starts to come on and flicker. Pulled over checked oil level. It was ok. Re-started engine and light went out and stayed out for about another hour or so then flickered back on and off again. This happened three times. The light remained out for the last portion of the ride home. Thinking about taking it up to dealer for a look-see. Anyone have anything to input, I'm listening. |

Mt. Vernon, WASH. | Had the same issue with a car I owned, turned out to be the diaphragm in the sending unit, a trip to the parts store, $15 and a few minutes took care of that sucker. |

| Pull wire off sending unit clean it really good carb cleaner electric clean what ever you have even wd-40 clean sending unit. It that doesn't help take sending unit to auto store and get new one.
Inside the sending unit is a small metal rod when you have pressure it will ground its self and no light. When you have no oil rod will slide down making light to come one |
