What did the oil lights do on your other cars,??? after an oil change wif filter yes, normal no. Three seconds, fook me I would have a panic attack if mine took that time every day.
Old Rover V8 I had in a TR7 used to be similar, I've not paid much attention of late as I've been driving company cars for the last few years,
You've scared the S*** out of me now though.......
Best check the pressure, as I spose that's the only way of knowing for sure, by the time the lights on full time it'll be too late.[/quote]
It's not uncommon for to be running wif low oil pressure with the light out cause the switches are not built for the space shuttle. most peeps that push their motors always fit a pressure guage as well, it tells you so much more, so if yer dont have a tester, buy a kit and run wif a perm oil guage.
The stag had a **** engine, the tr7 was also **** in every way and was the end of the decent tr's and I don't know what enjun it had in, but everybody ripped the stag engun out and fitted a rover cause it was bullit proof.
I had a tr4, part from the lucas injecshun and a tendancy to wear out thrust bearings on the crank it was all right. oh, mah wire wheels kept coming loose and it rusted to fook, and the soft top was ****, and it was noisy and cold, but it was ok in the summer, 2 weeks of the year.
And the overdrive kept ****in up, bit like a landie really, but I loved it to bits.
Got an slk merc now, but only gets to play in the good wever. The disco is the go anywhere bus, an it's brill too.
