my oil light comes on while idling and idles at really low rpms, about 5-600, both in park and in drive sitiing at a stoplight, i got an oil change about 500 miles ago an check the dipstick every week and it looks normal. as soon as rpms go past 1000 the light turns off an it runs fine while im driving but as soon as the rpms go back down the light comes back on and the car acts like its about to stall out
. But yeah I was getting 10 to 15 mpg and throwing a bunch of CEL's so I did the DSM rule number 1 is maintenance. I fixed all the oil leaks basically oil pan, valve cover n oil pressure sending unit. Then replaced the O2 sensors n put my battery in the trunk. So ran all new power n ground wires, yes all was very time consuming but was all worth it now. I'm getting 30 mpg+, not using a drop of oil and my car is running great..... (Knock on wood
