Hi everyone. Hope everybody is good and looking forward to spending time in your buses now the weather has improved ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I just got my imported '71 bus through its first UK MOT so was looking forward to driving her around this summer. However, I am hoping my engine doesn't need an overhaul as during my trip home from the test centre the oil pressure light started to flicker after about 1/2 hour of driving and when I was exiting the motorway on the slip road and changing down gears. It went off as I went back up the gears but would come on, flickering, whenever I change down gears/reduce speed when approaching roundabouts and T junctions. Any advice/pointers would be appreciated.
Also, my fuel gauge has stopped working despite having a full tank. It was recently working ok. Again, any clues?
Finally, my dash lights seem like they may have an issue as they work intermittently and when they do work they are quite dull. ..is this normal? It is the stock dashboard. The high beam light works when high beam is on but the blue light is very faint. Again, any help would be greatly appreciated.
