So I've taken care of my oil leak problem and the oil light persists flickering in my '81 242. Sometimes it flickers faintly and other times it flickers obviously. It didn't used to flicker when the engine was cold but now it does. I bought a new oil pressure sensor thinking this is the problem.
But I have noticed recently the car seems to be acting more sluggishly than usual and the gas mileage isn't so great (can't tell exactly since the odometer works intermittently and not at all in warm weather). I'm wondering if my oil pressure is lower than it should be and this flickering is telling me my oil pump is about to crap out.
Any ideas?
