| - | ===== Oil Pressure Light ===== | ||
| - | If the oil pressure light stays on at speeds above idling, always check the oil supply first. \\ | ||
| - | Then if the oil supply is normal, look inside the oil tank to determine if oil is returning to the tank from the return hose with the engine running. \\ | ||
| - | If oil is returning to the tank, there is some circulation and the engine may be run a short distance if necessary. \\ | ||
| - | If no oil is returning, shut the engine off until the trouble is located and fixed. \\ | ||
| - | |||
| - | Conditions causing the oil light to stay on; \\ | ||
| - | Low or diluted oil supply, \\ | ||
| - | Or a plugged lifter screen (86-91) under the plug between the tappets, \\ | ||
| - | A grounded oil signal switch wire, \\ | ||
| - | Faulty oil switch, \\ | ||
| - | Faulty or weak oil pump, \\ | ||
| - | Clogged feed hose (in freezing weather from ice and sludge preventing the circulation of oil). \\ | ||
