Subject:      Oil light coming on on 2 liter
Comments: To: type2@type2.com

Here is my question.


New 2lliter rebuild.....runs great.  After a good interstate run, I come to
a stop sign, oil light pops on, pressure gauge reads 10 PSI.  Slightly touch
accelerator, light goes out.


I thought about raising the idle, but it is fine.  My concern is that I do
not want to get into the habit of ignoring this light,  or train my wife to
ignore it, because sooner or later it will be a problem that is causing the
light to come on.


Could there be a problem with the sending unit, or could the sending unit be
swapped to come on at a lower PSI?
