Hi All,

 

I changed the oil and filter in Digi-wife's 88 GL and after a little use and
some freeway driving the oil light would come on and the buzzer would go
off...panic!!!!

 

I had just used the Techno Oil 20-50 from Wal-mart (cheap stuff) and a fram
filter.  I changed the oil back to my favorite Castrol 20-50 and the oil
light and buzzer have yet to come on.  I suspect the Techno Oil is just too
cheap.
