Ok i have a 93 eg with a ls swap and the oil light flickers does not stay constantly on just flickrs and sometimes goes off PLEASE HELP

 

Can anybody help asap!!

 

Could possibly be oil pump losing pressure? My friend's car does this too but he hasn't done anything about it.

Also check on the back of the block to see if the oil sensor is loose

 

Bump for info i am kinda thinking its the oil pump!

 

it's the oil pump.. it's not pumping enough oil pressure. either that the motor is slugged up, I've had this happen before. But had a customer call me awhile back saying his oil light started to flicker a engine I had built ran awesome.. Til his friend and him decided to install a " toga " high volume oil pump on his car and a week later the oil light started to flash on him and he calls me and i told him we could do a pressure test on it and go from there. before he could make it to the shop his engine started to knock. I tore his engine apart, found that the #1 rod had messed up due to lack of oil. I took his oil pump off and when I took it out and just had it in my hand i turned it around and i heard a CLING CLING noise like something was loose inside of it. So my advice for you is to do a oil pressure test. good luck.

 

Bump for good info hopefully its not too badd

 

Just dont drive it til you get the oil pressure tested. Just to be safe. Than again it could mess up doing the oil pressure test. but at least this way you have a better chance of knowing what the problem is if the car is still running good. good luck

 

I mean the car runs flawless no noise nothing its just that stupid light...thnx

 

Thnx for all the info i replaced my oil sensor and the light went off!

 

That's good to hear man! Good job

 

up top for all the helping hands on honda-tech

 

I recommend getting an Oil Pressure gauge. Lets you keep a better eye on things and you can still use the OEM sending unit and have the OEM light as well.
