THE OIL LIGHT WILL COME ON WHEN THERE ISNT ANY OIL PRESSURE SO MANY PEOPLE THINK IT COMES ON WHEN YOU HAVE NO OIL ALTHOUGH HAVING NO OIL ON THE DIP STICK MAY CAUSE A LIGHT USUALLY IT IS THE OIL PRESSURE SENSOR WHICH IS LOCATED NEAR THE DISTRIBUTOR ON THE BACK OF THE ENGINE IT IS A REAL B***H TO SEE.
