I HAVE A JDM B18C MOTOR. IT IS IN A 99 INTEGRA GS-R. THE OTHER DAY AFTER I STARTED THE CAR THE OIL LIGHT FLASHED ON AND OFF AS IT WAS RUNNING SO I CUT THE CAR OFF. I CHECKED THE OIL IT WAS ABOUT A QUART AND HALF LOW. AFTER I PUT OIL IN HER THE LIGHT WENT AWAY. MY QUESTION IS WILL THIS LIGHT COME ON IF ITS THAT LOW ON OIL OR DO YOU GUYS THINK I MAY BE REPLACING MY OIL PUMP SOON THANKS

Did you just do the swap on it? Or has the motor been in for awhile?

WELL I HAD THE SWAP IN MY DA AND I TOTALED IT SO I BOUGHT A DC SHELL AND SWAPED IT IN THERE ABOUT THREE MONTHS AGO

the oil light is a dummy light. if you were more than a qt low, i would worry about your motor getting ready to crap out on you, especially if you like/tend to beat on it.

IT DOES BURN ALOT OF OIL I GUESS IT WAS QT LOW BUT I LET IT GO FOR ABOUT 6000 MILES IS THAT ABOUT NORMAL . OR BURNING TO MUCH OIL I DONT EVER GO THAT MANY MILES WITHOUT GETING IT CHANGED JUST BEEN A REAL BUSY COUPLE MONTHS

cars are supposed to burn gasoline or diesel, not oil. it's not fucking double rainbow magic.

READING YOUR EXPLANATIONS IS VERY CONFUSING COULD YOU TRY TO REMOVE THE CAPS LOCK AND MAKE COMPLETE SENTENCES YOUR OIL LIGHT CAME ON BECAUSE YOU WERE LOW ON OIL BECAUSE THATS HOW IT WORKS I WOULD BE MORE WORRIED ABOUT HOW YOUR ENGINE ENDED UP A QUART AND A HALF LOW ON OIL BECAUSE THAT IS BAD.

Your motor is trash, that's why its burning that much oil.

Wouldn't hurt for you to make complete sentences either.
