Oil pressure low
If the oil pressure suddenly drops, or the audible alarm and engine oil pressure
warning light come on while driving, do the following:
1. Slow down carefully.
2. Move a safe distance off the road and stop.
3. Place the transmission in park and set the parking brake. (See Stopping on
page 112 and Automatic Gearbox on page 128-134, for transmission shifting
and parking brake information.)
4. Turn OFF the engine.
5. Turn ON the emergency flasher and use other warning devices to alert other
motorists.
6. Wait a few minutes to allow oil to drain into the engine oil pan, and then check
the oil level. (See "ENGINE OIL LEVEL" in "INSPECTIONS AND
MAINTENANCE" on page 93, for details on checking oil level.)
7. Add oil if necessary. If the problem persists, contact an authorized dealer as
soon as possible.
CAUTION
Continuing to operate your vehicle with insufficient oil pressure
may cause severe engine damage or cause an accident which may
result in equipment or property damage. It is important to maintain
oil pressure within acceptable limits. If oil pressure drops below the
minimum psi a Red Warning Lamp on the oil pressure gauge and
the Stop Engine Lamp will come ON.
