  • sure fire way to know you are getting oil.

    I am trying to figure out if I have oil circulating b.c my oil light stays on.

    I thought the oil cap, but the baffle, I cannot see through.....

    pull your front valve cover and stand back . is your engine making any noises? low oil circulation usually shows up as noises on cold start and/or under heavy load.

          If your "idiot" light is on, and you don't hear any noise from the top, you have oil. Change the sending unit. I hate those lights. They don't monitor anything, and only come on when you have lost pressure, or the sending unit is trashed. And what happens when the bulb burns out? "Give me gauges, or give me death!" Patrick Henry said that when his light came on.
