Engine Oil Light
My oil pressure light does the same thing, but that's ever since I removed the stock airbox and used an adapter to run a cone filter. The air/fuel is totally off since it's sucking alot more in. When come to a light or any type of stop.
When I have the A/C on, then push the clutch it to be in it neutral at a light, my rpm's drop below normal really quick and then come back up. When that happens, my light comes on for a second, then goes away.
BUT i def know that ever since I changed the filter, it does that alot when comming to a stop...I think I might just go back to stock box.

The same thing happened to my 06 MR. When I would come to a stop light and sit for a few seconds the oil light would flicker on and off randomly. If I would "blip" the throttle the light went out. Long story short, I found the oil pressure sensor connector was corroded causing the light to come on. I replaced the connector and the sensor and less than $20 later problem solved. Good luck!
MY CAR DOES EXACTLY THAT LIGHT COMES ON WHEN I AM STOPPED BUT ONCE I AM RUNNING IT GOES AWAY.
CAR RUNS AS IT SHOULD ILL LOOK INTO THE SENSOR THEN. THANKS A BUNCH.
IF IT IS THE SENSOR THAT IS BAD WHERE DO U GET ONE FOR 20 BUCKS??
Went back to OEM intake with drop in, still happy.
Nice Idea on the sensor-- may also consider running a high viscosity ( thicker) oil then what you currently put in since its summer and running a little warmer. The hotter the oil the thinner it gets, the less pressure it registers..if you are using 5-30, try a 5-40 or 10-40, that will get you fixed so you don't drop a few ibs of pressure at idle while warm.. This will do the trick.
If you have an external oil filter housing with cooler then it's on there. Look above the right front axle where the filter is and it's sticking out pointing towards the rear of the car. If you don't have an external oil filter housing it's located I believe on the back of the block about half way down in the middle. Let me know if you have other questions. I'll try to help the best way I can. I know this is annoying and a little scary.
i looked all over the filter area and i didnt see a single wire around that area.
i have a evo 8 03 anybody know where this thing is located a pic maybe?
