I took a look at the oil pressure sending unit a day ago and saw that
it was slightly leaking oil. Later this week, I'm going to Napa to pick up a new oil sending unit for the light. The engine in my car was replaced over 2.5 years ago. The engine that's in there now is a used (junkyard) engine. As far as how the engine sounds, it makes somewhat of a ticking sound in the head at idle (which remained even after the valve job and head gasket replacement). The mechanics told me not to worry about it. Also, there is what appears to be some wristpin noise (which occurs only before the engine warms up). There's no bottom end noise as far as I can tell, though. For the last 2.5 years, I've always done my oil changes on time and used Mobil 1 full synthetic with high quality filters everytime ever since the current engine has been in my car. |
