Well, this is a '91 3.8L V6 (Thunderbird), stock and NOT super charged.
This morning going to work, the oil pressure light was flickering on and off after the car warmed up. (Long nervous ride after I was already half way there.)
This afternoon, no light at all (other than on startup of course).
Some history: I changed the sending unit last Falling trying to chase down an oil leak (which was power steering). About the same time I ran a coat hang in the pan looking for sludge and found nothing and ran a quart of trans fluid with the oil to clean things up.
What do you think this is?
I have a few options: bad oil filter, bad sending unit, bad oil pump, gunk in the oil pan/screen in the oil pan, bad connection to the dash.
Also, does anyone know what the oil pressure is suppose to be?
Thanks for any help.
