Can I drive? Oil pressure warning light came on yesterday. I put in a little over a qt of oil. I read the manual- called tow.
Tow guy convinced me I could drive it home about 5 miles. He checked that oil was circulating. thought it might be sensor/electrical.. "take to mechanic in am"
I'm waiting for the mechanic to open..need to get to work
thoughts?
thanks

Wouldnt risk it, have him verify pressure with a manual gauge before replacing the sending unit. Better safe than blown up.
