Hey,
I'm pretty new to owning my cb7 and so I figured I'd start here. Please let me know if this is the wrong place.
I did some reading and research, but couldn't find any posts that described the exact same issue I'm having. I found some similar, but they sounded different enough for me to make a post regarding this.
Anyways, this is my issue:
In short, my oil light is sporadically flickering. I have noticed it starts doing it only when the car has been running for a long time and has gotten pretty hot. It doesn't over-heat or anything though. Also, when this light starts to flicker, it begins to idle pretty rough. Then, if I step on the gas ever-so-slightly, the light goes away completely and the idle evens out and it goes back to humming like a bird.
It doesn't leak oil. When I check the dipstick, the oil level is on point. I don't seem to see any smoking coming from the bay or anything. And like I mentioned, it is not overheating at all. And there is NO engine light.
So I guess could someone maybe point me in the right direction on how to begin diagnosing this?
Thank you so much!!!!!
