My '85 vanagon with 150 K had a head gasket job last February. Aside from that not holding, a few weeks after the job was done, the oil pressure light began doing this thing where it would flutter when idling or when slowing down with the clutch depressed (after driving for a few miles). The local VW dealer said to try 20W50, which I did to no avail. Well, now I'm redoing the heads myself, and am wondering if there's something I should look for to correct the oil pressure problem. Any ideas? David Bradshaw Bell Buckle, TN
