Yes, I did a search and found a lot of post on this topic. But!!!! My car has another issue along with the blinking oil light.

I have a 96 Accord LX coupe with 245,000 miles on her. I was running errands yesterday and had to punch the gas a few times to get over to my approahing exit. Well when I got to my destination I noticed my oil light was flickering when I was parking. I quickly ran inside the post office to check my p.o. box. On my way out I noticed a fresh puddle of oil underneath my car. It was obviously coming from my car. It started up fine and the oil light was now off. I haven't had any problems since but any ideas what would cause oil to spew out from car? I know my engine is going to go any day now. Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks in advance.

 

Well, several things come to mind, but at some point in this Diagno-fest you're going to have to cram your head under the hood and give us SOME IDEA where you're seeing fresh oil.
It could be leaking from several points for several reasons
Oil Filter
Oil Pressure sending unit
Valve Cover gasket
Oil Cooler Adapter (if equipped)
Rear Main Seal
Front Crank Seal
Cam seal(s)
etc.

Under what part of the engine did you see this oil?
Left
Right
Front or back?

Throw me a bone here, will ya?

The oil puddle was under the front drivers side of the engine. Judging from the location of the puddle; I think it may be leaking from the front crank area. Thanks in advance P.

Have you even opened up the hood and checked before posting here ?? If not.

you need to first off open the hood and look for any leaks,, then raise the car and loook for any leaks , like Mr P_ says there could be a lot of places oil could leak........So you have not seen any oil leaks since?? and no oil lite ??
