The water in radiator jug boils after I drive a few miles, but carburetor gauge wasn't up past normal. When I stop oil light blinks.

Hello,

Okay, these might be two separate issue. First I would check to see if your thermostat is opening. Here is a couple of links for you to go to:

I wouldn't drive until I got these problems diagnosed and fixed. In the diagrams down below I have a factory troubleshooting guide for your vehicle's Oil Pressure Warning Indicator Lamp. Please go through this guide and get back to us with what you are able to find out.

Thanks,
Alex
