Does neons set off the oil light if it gets low on oil or just when pressure drops?
I bought a neon was wanting to know which engine I have
there is no cover over it foir me to tell.
If it has two gears showing after removing timing belt does that mean DOHC?

1 Gear = SOHC
2 Gears = DOHC

yes it will put the oil light on for low oil or at least pressure changes that are symptomatic of being low on oil.

Sorry for the bump, bur I thought I would share this. My oil light has flickered at highway speeds for almost a year and I could not find the problem. Well I just replaced the intake gasket after car starting missing at idle and now my oil light has not came on. I checked for electrical shorts but could not find one. I don't know what the intake gasket leaking has to do with making oil light flicker but there was a coincidence involved.

I seem to have the same problem. bought my daughter a 95. What would be a few good tricks to test around the intake gasket. The oil light seems to come on, and off at random.

I found mine when I was spraying Carb cleaner around the intake. It made the engine run different.
