Re: Oil pressure warning light

[Xpertcool@domain.elided]

Ciao all,

I have an interesting problem with the oil pressure warning light in my 74 
spider (upper red light in the dash 4-light pattern). I know that Braden's 
book says do not drive the car any further when this light comes on, but my 
light comes on only when I am taking left corners- so often that I'm 
beginning to think it might be a hard left corner indicator light. The oil 
pressure guage reads just fine, (dead center with power applied) and the 
dipstick readings are likewise good. I did loose about 4 or 5 oz on the 
garage floor the other night from the rear of the sump (will check that out 
tomorrow) but this idiot light thing has been going on for a month now (BTW, 
it just flashes on momentarily while cornering and the goes right off 
afterwards) so I'm thinking it might just be a loose sending wire- any 
thoughts about where to look?
