As for the light - my '85 did this until I replaced the oil sender (remember,
pre-86 only has one, not two senders).  It appears that somehow the wrong
sender had been installed, and though when new it didn't light up, it would
light up continuously below 2000 rpm (scared me silly).  Putting correct one
in solved the problem entirely

Just my 2cents.....
