Hey guys,

Got a bit of a nagging issue with the TB42, occasionally (randomly) the oil light with flicker on and then off, occasionally its accompanied with a backfire when the engine is cold... Its not using oil (The oil is full, sump is as clean as the day it was rebuilt) and the oil is still fairly clean...

been there done that

yea they do that sometimes ay, mine did it on a regular bassis before i put the 5L in it.generaly not too much to worry about( providing you are still keeping oil pressure) being that they are a pretty ordinary pressure switch i've gone for the after market mechanical guage myself but each to there own you may rather keep it genuine an just replace the factory sensor
