Not the sender, I actually pulled it while the light was on and saw no flow.
Stopped and restarted, and got great flow. Looking for suggestions... USA, 95 Celica GT (S), 2.2 (5S-FE looks right)... Is the drive for the oil pump absolutely positive? ie, is the drive designed such that the oil pump could be working, stop , and then return? I would suspect that it is so, that a broken part would remain non-functional, but does anyone know? If so, I will concentrate on pickup/blockage/pan, which could come and go. Is pan removable on car? Thanks, tshephard |

the oil pump is driven by the timing belt.
if your seeing intermittent flow, its more than likley the pump going bad -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
