OK, I'll start out by saying I know what low oil pressure is. That out of the way I was wondering when after checking my oil level (lucky enough with 178K that the Rover doesn't burn any) and finding it full, I was still sometimes seeing the low oil pressure light flickering from time to time, mostly when at idle.
I can speculate that my oil pump is going bad, but as Land Rover decided to just give us a light instead of an actual gauge, I'm not sure just how much pressure I'm down. Is there a way for me to test this or should I just bite the bullit and bring it on down to the service center and get it checked out?
Also, if it is a bad pump, can it be replaced fairly easy?
Hope I can get some help, getting the itch to go camping and the Civic doesn't make quite as good of a camping vehicle.
