Technical Service Bulletin 83-2R2_____________________________________Under some conditions the warning light may fluctuate when the engine is running. This usuallyhappens when the vehicle is going around a corner or is on a relatively steep hill. If oil pressurefluctuation occurs under these conditions, it is because the oil level is low and the oil pump strainer isno longer fully submerged in the oil. The oil level should be immediately filled to the proper level.In summary, the oil pressure warning device provides vital information to the driver. If there is anindication of low or no oil pressure when the engine is running, it should be shut off immediately andthe cause investigated.Figure 1 Figure 2For additional information, contact:Filter Manufacturers CouncilP.O.
