Yesterday my oil pressure idiot light came on. I changed the oil and it is still on. I bought the oil pressure switch hoping that that is the problem, but I have not been able to find out where it is so that I can replace it (if anyone knows where it is located that would be great). If that does not fix the problem I am worried that there is much bigger problem. A little over a year ago my head gasket blew, I only drove a couple of miles after it blew and then replaced the head gasket and changed the oil. About 3 or 4 months ago I had it overheat pretty good, turned out to be a faulty radiator cap. I am wondering if anyone has dealt with or has any idea of what is most likely wrong with it. I am worried that it is an oil pump. I am guessing that I will need to put a gauge on it to test the oil pressure, to help determine what is really the cause. Thanks in advance for any help.
