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.
