Dear Folks, I am experiencing the oil pressure light coming on in a 1986 Synro. Sometimes it comes on and buzzes after running for 15 to 20 minutes. And sometimes not.Sometimes the light will buzz for a few minutes then goes out maybe, maybe not. Sometimes the light will not come on after driving it for a couple of hours. There are NO unusual motor noises (such as clatters from lifters ) or knocks for rods/crank clearances.Could this be a simple oil pressure sending unit failure???? Please help. Any body experienced this ??? Bill Webster Meridian,MS. |
