Low oil pressure light

posted by  someone claiming to be Sam on  Thu Sep 16 23:51 CST 2004 [RELATED]

The oil sump PU is BOLTED to the block and can't become loose. If you have low oil pressure, you risk doing very serious damage to major engine parts so I don't advise driving the car much until fixed (assuming that it's not electrical). I'd be surprized if it was electrical.
Labor time to R&R the oil pan and replace its related o-rings is about 4 hours (subframe needs to be lowered) so although perhaps not inexpensive, that's still far better than a new or used engine.
