What oil filter? Brand of oil?
If I were you, I would go ahead and replace both oil sensors, one at the oil filter and one at the head with new ones. They get weak over time and do not do the same job they used to. Get FACTORY sensors, aftermarket sensors are shiite. That may or may not affect your situation, but it would only be about 15.00 to find out...
