An engine can have a single quart of oil in it and it will not effect oil pressure as long as the oil pump is working.

Do what we have said for the past 20 years, remove and discard the OE sending unit. Buy a true oil pressure gauge and install it, then monitor it. If you care anything for your car you'll do at least that. Relying on a simple switch and light is the best way to shred bearings into powder.

I would also suggest learning how to properly type using punctuation and capitalization. Not only are your posts visually impossible to decipher, you look like even more of an idiot and a lot of people won't bother to help you since they feel anything they say will just confuse you.

goddamn! if punctuation and all that crap bugs u maybe u should become a freking English teacher then, my bad! i was typing from my palm and i sucked at typing from it. I will disregard that stupid switch and i will get a real oil pressure gauge and monitor that bitch like no other. I did not know that oil light was pressure i was under the impression that it was for oil level thats why i pulled over and checked the oil level.

And this is why you need to quit driving and start reading. There is only a scant few cars on the road today that actually have an oil level monitoring system, and even those are a very poor, inaccurate way of reading level. 99.9% of cars ever built with an oil light are for oil pressure, since there is no real easy way to measure level (as the level is constantly changing as oil is pumped from the pan). Anyone with an understanding of engine lubrication would know that.

I wouldn't mind being an English teacher, but honestly with the youth of today (like you) using Ebonics like it was a religion, I'd end up killing all my students with an AK47 because trying to teach them anything is pointless. Kids think they know it all already and refuse to be taught anything. Still, the fact remains that if you type like a complete moron, odds are people (like me) will just assume you really are a complete moron, and therefore don't deserve any technical help as you're too stupid to understand it.

Alright u don't mind being a teacher but guess what? u could not be one even if u wanted to, I understand now you are just a 35 old man that acts and thinks that he is...not sure maybe 50?(pathetic dude that is married but still rarely gets laid). I also see that you are a post whore, well Mister post whore if you don't have anything constructive to say on this thread please don't count on it to elevate your number of post, now i can see and i bet that 90% of your post are just BS, this is a car/Nissan related forum which i have been monitoring for a few years and it's awesome, here are lots of fans, enthusiasts that wanna talk car and dont wanna worry about punctuation and ebonics?? are u kidding me?? look back at ur comments and realize who the moron is... YOU.

I've answered more tech questions on Nissan forums than you've been alive in days on this Earth. I've owned, serviced, salvaged, and parted out 240s for over 16 years, running my own shop for four of them. I sponsored the 2003 240SX National Convention, helped set up over three dozen local and SouthEastern 240SX meets over the years, and I was the first person ever to post online about fitting Z32 rear brakes on an Schassis and wiring the DCC swap on an S14, years before I even created an account with Zilvia. I have been an enthusiast longer than you've been alive more than likely, so don't talk to me about not contributing. My contributions run farther than anything you can imagine, but everyone gets to the point, especially now 21 years since the Schassis debuted, that everything possible to be discussed has been and is well documented online. There is no way for someone like you to not be able to find anything you could ever possibly want to know with just a few keystrokes. Still, you post a completely basic, remedial question in a manner that proves you are completely incapable of doing anything on your own, nor do you have the skills to even make it past the french fry cook at McDonalds.

By the way, even in my derogatory, abusive manner of replying I did fully answer your question.
