Default RE: oil pressure

If your oil pressure is down, have it checked ASAP, rather than frig around fitting gauges. It may only be a minor electrical prob thats causing both lights to come on (as in faulty pressure gauge switch).
Does the donk (motor) sound ok when its running? low oil pressure is usually followed by engine knock noise as the motor struggles for lubrication. (load enough to be heard over the motor)
