Hi guys,

When I start my car every light in the dash goe's on and after the engine is started they all go off except the oil light, it stays on a bit longer and then goes off.
Doe's any one know what this meen? Oil preasure ore something?
I did have some problem with oil a few days ago where I had a bad leaking problem, every oil came out. I tihgten a few screw's and it does not seems to leak any more, but the light is bothering me.
I will apreciate the help.

Thx guys!

Had a similar problem not too long ago. Light stayed on longer than usual. Checked under the car and noticed oil splattered underneath, cleaned it up and changed the oil. Turns out my plug was barley on hand tight (still trying to figure out how it worked its self loose). Drained and refilled. Did a PFT on the plug and the light turned off normally. If you were leaking oil you need to at least top it off after you fixed the problem. If the light keeps bothering you check to see that you dont have any more leaks (as that may be part of the problem).
