So, I'm driving down the road on my way to work, stop at a traffic light....and the oil light comes on. Instant panic. I immediately throw the car in neutral to check if I'm idling too slow, then shut her down to check the oil level....full and clean. So I stop by to see my friend Mark at Advance Auto and borrow an oil pressure gauge. I pull the oil pressure sending unit and test, 60 lbs of oil, and the switch is covered with oil...whew. After a quick stop at the auto parts store for a new switch ($7), we are back in buisiness and running great. Now if only I could get the snow to stop falling.
