Whats Going On ?

hey guys,

I have an R33 Gtst 1995 , i just rebuilt the engine with ACL forged pistons, changed rings bearings gaskets... etc.....

the car is driving well and it sounds well however when I put the running oil It was very very thin... so I called Valvoline and asked them what they thought I should do...

they recommended putinbeg a minaral based oil with a grading of 15w40 (does this sound right???) anyway I put it in took it for a drive it was fine went for a 30 minute drive latter and oil presure sign started to come up however the pressure gage was reading fine.. i pulled over checked oil checked for leaks it was fine,... so i turned it back on it was gone... AS I headed back home it came back 10mins latter.. Once again checked oil...and it was fine..

I woke up next morining and drove it for 20 mins until it re-appeared, then it disapeard \< i have been causioly driving it for the last 2 days with not a hick up at all.. yesterday it came on again for 2 mins then it was gone..

the light comes very lightly (you can hardley see it ) then it gets brighter and brighter somtimes it just flashes...

has this happend to anyone before?? I was told it could be the sending unit but it dosent make sense as gage is fine and i thought it was ran through the same unit.

i cleaned all the oil line prior to fitting and blew them out with air comp ??

any suggestions ??

Thanks

Oil pressure........the light is std, its the old on/off switch, they f#ck up all the time, cost sub $20.

An after market gauge sender works off a different sender, it has to.
