Way off the deep end, but did you check the oil pressure switch? if its loose
it will cause a problem of splashing oil around. It's located by the distributor. |

It's located by the distributor. i do i still have the switch? yes, it is factory installed. Look for the wire coming out of the cooling tin just beside and behind (toward the rear of the car) the distributor. The wire is green with red stripe if I recall. |
