PLZ HELP my 93 mx3 GS!!!

Post by ecfreal »

hi<P>iam a proud owner of a emerald green 1993 MX3 GS v6. My problem is i noticed my oil light on my dashboard is lighted up, it some times doesnt pop on till like 2-5 minutes of driving..and it flickers on and off depends if i rev up my engine, then afterwards the light will remain on till i shut the engine. i recently had my timing belt replaced and think thats when the oil light started coming on. Also i noticed that when the oil light is on i feel my car is slower of the start, i can feel the difference in performance.<P>any help would be appreciated<BR>thanx in advance<BR>Peter

You have actually checked your oil level, right?
