As long as the light remains in the motor oil, nothing happens to its speed.
how low does oil level have to be before oil light activates on a Suzuki 70 horsepower outboard motor
Any light machine oil, including motor oil in a pinch.
Not likely, but I would not try it.
an oil light is designed to come on when there is NO oil pressure or LITTLE oil pressure. that said, when your oil light is on before you start your engine there is NO oil pressure to turn it off until you start the engine.
If the light is red in color, it means trouble. It could be something as small a matter as the wrong weight of motor oil. A green light, provided on some engines, would indicate all is well.
When you run your car low on oil you increase the instance of burning your motor. If your motor burned out your car won't work.
If the oil light came on before the engine died then, no. The Oil Light is not an indication of the fuel pump or relay. The Oil Light comes on when the oil preasure drops too low, which can happen when the oil pump goes out, the oil passages are restricted or the vehicle is too low on oil. If the Oil Light came on when the motor died or shortly after, that is normal, because the motor stopped running, thus stopping the oil pump. If your oil light came on well before the motor died, then either you were about out of oil or the oil pump quit...... AND if that happened and then your engine died..... you're looking at replacing/rebuilding the engine.
The suggested motor oil for a 1997 Mitsubishi Galant is a light 5W30 conventional oil. Older engines made need a little heavier oil to prevent leaking.
As soon as the 2003 Buick Regal change oil light comes on, it is important to do so immediately. Not changing your oil can damage the motor in your car.
Usually it means you don't have enough oil in the motor. Check it! If the oil level is good try having the oil changed, it could be the warning light is because of a clogged filter or really cruddy oil.
You may be low on oil, add some. You may not have changed the oil recently. Change it, the oil may have lost its viscosity and the filter is clogged.
