Does oil light come while idle in 97 Pontiac sunfire when main bearing or rod bearing need replaced?
oil light comes on when there is not poper amount of oil in engine. if proper amount is in engine and light comes on at idle, maybe the oil needs changing. oil looses some of its viscosity when old/you might also check oil sender unit and oil pressure gauge. it all these are good you need new oil pump,as it is loosing pressure at idle. just because oil light comes on , DOES NOT mean you need new main bearings. YOU WILL KNOW WHEN U NEED MAINS AS THE ENGINE WILL RATTLE LIKE A THOUSAND LITTLE MEN IN IN WITH HAMMERS. THIS NOISE WILL ALSO GET WORSE WHEN YOU REV ENGINE
