    Default Wierd oil pressure light

    Yesterday on my way home, i started getting the oil pressure light. What was wierd, was that it wasnt solid. It was dimly lit. It completly went away when i hit the throttle and when I put the car in neutral at a light or rolled on the freeway it again dimly lit. Could this just be faulty? The light when I started the car is a strong red color so i know the bulb isnt bad. It always goes off after I start the car. I recently changed the oil with 10w-40 and ive always used this and not had a problem. I havint driven the car since because im sort of worried. Again, its not a strong light, and it only came on in idle, and the car was warm. Clogged pumped? Bad Switch? Just happed by chance? I need ya guys once again to save my a**
