does anyone know how to fix this? It only does it at low RPMs but it would feel like a rigged solution if i just raised the idle, right now its at like 6-7 hundred rpms

the oil light started doing that to me at idle and occasionally when i braked. a little while later it threw a rod. a new oil pump is not that expensive neither is the oil pan gasket or high temp RTV.
just thought i would let you know my experience. |
