Re: weird oil buzzer sounds

Heh.. yeah.. i learned the hard way the first time. but my engine
compartment didn't catch on fire.. but yet, the cam seized on the head and
the force of the timing belt ripped the sprocket right off the cam shooting
it around the engine then spitting it back out the freeway. well i'm getting
a new oil pump within the next few days. so peace of mind. well. i unplugged
all the senders for the oil pressure to see if it was a faulty dash. i
dunno. the light still comes on even with the senders unplugged. weird.
