A newbie
Hi I'm a new member from Hampshire.
I have an 83 helios blue mk1 Campaign and I love it greatly!
I don't have a huge knowledge of cars but am gradually learning bit by bit, as things go wrong/drop off or just generally wear out!
Need a bit of advice. The oil light and buzzer keeps coming on sporadically. No reason for it, and before you ask I have checked the oil!
Any ideas?

Hi VE hood to see you here with a nice colour.
Have a search on the flashing oil light as it seems it can be a problem with the instrument cluster but worth checking pressure are OK and it is not your oil pump packing up.

I had this problem, I changed both the oil pressure sensors, then i found out it was a fault in the PCB in the dash, just behind the speedo
