Fibbing oil light, Silly thing wont go out! Options

[nitrate]

Hi all,

Just got myself a new old celica. Really nice drive with plenty of power. However as with all used cars there are a number of little things that need sorting. The one i am struggling with at the mo is the oil level light on the dash, it lights up as soon as the car moves from starting. It rarely goes out. It is not the oil pressure, but the oil level. I think this must be a faulty sender or duff connector as the oil level is correctly topped up with 10/30W oil. Anyone had anything similar? Also does anyone know the location of the oil level sender so i can check the plug contacts for fouling as i gather it will be under the car somwere. The car in question is a 94 generation6 celica GT, UK spec totaly standard, no mods. Engine is a 3S-GE 170ish bhp , dash type 180MPH 9K RPM. Sunroof, Hatchback. Also how do you stop the ABS light coming on? Does it indicate worn pads? as i think they are low.

Cheers,
Leigh.P

At last the battries in my digicam finnaly held out long enough to get some pics. The first pic is a general view of the engine so you know which one i have.




And this is the strange hole in my air box.




I think i should just block it up. The bad idle on my engine is getting worse now and it is also starting to sound exhausty. I am starting to get power loss as well. I've been into a garage to have the exhaust checked but no leaks even though it sounds like it. The guy at the garage said the cat may have collapsed but he does not have any way of checking it. What do you guys think? Also my spark plugs are fine as i've had a look. Platinum plugs with pin-type electrodes, a fine coating of grey residue, no oil ect. Please Help!!
