Ok, starting just yesterday, my oil pressure light is coming on once the car is warmed up. The car is a 1977 Volare Wagon with a 225 slant six and 2 barrel carb. The light is doing a lot of flickering and coming on sort of half lit, and then at certain speeds it will light all the way up. Is this indicative of a failing sensor, or am I looking at an oil pump issue? If it is the oil pump, how easy is it to drop the pan with the engine in the car? Sorry for all the questions that could probably be answered with some exploration on my part, but it is snowing out right now and I have no garage. On that note, though, what is the preferred service manual for these cars, is there something better than the standard chilton/haynes manuals? I'm guessing it would help me to answer a lot of these questions on my own.
