Jon, my man, what is wrong with this argument: If the oil forcefully sloshes
into the oil pickup as you claim, then at some time previously it must have
forcefully sloshed away from the oil pickup.  Also, barring some faulty idiot
light circuitry, how on earth does an oil pressure warning light turn on
without the oil pressure dropping below the set point of the oil pressure
switch?
