While cruising along at about 25 mph yesterday I was listening to Lenny Kravitz and I noticed a strange tone in the song I had never heard before. Then I realized this was not some special musical effect but was actually my Oil system freaking out. I Immeadialty shut her down, turned off Lenny. As i was shutting her down, I glanced down at the gauges only to see everything looking normal except the oil pressure light. I was only a few blocks from home so I started her up again. No light no buzzer, nothing wierd at all. So I drove her around the neighborhood taking her thru a few gears reving her up and down. So far everything has been fine.Has this happened to any of you? I run the good german filters from the busdepot and Mobil 1. The van has 136,000 miles on it. The only thing I know of that needs repair is my exhaust system has a few small holes in it...
