Tire pressure and oil?

I got two quick questions. My tires were looking alittle low, and i went out and bought a pressure checker and it clocked them in at being about 25psi each. That seemed pretty low to me honestly, anyone know what they should be at for a 94cavalier.

Next I noticed recently when i first turn on my car for a couple of seconds the check oil light pops on. I went out and checked it and its sitting in the right spot on the dipstick. So what could that problem be, just need to warm up the engine or do i need to do something else.

Thanks again.

the tire pressure for your tires is found by opening your door, and looking either on the post or the inside of the door... see if it matches up... as for the check oil light... all of your gauges should be lighting up when u start it... check oil light is usually one of the last to go off so that isnt anything to worry about.. unless it stays on...

uhh... what switch are you talkin about... I think this is like when you use an outhouse to leave a shit, you have to make sure you flush before you leave... check and make sure the oil filter is on snug.. did you put a little oil on the O-ring?...
