    That's scary. One of my riding buddies has the exact same color scheme on his bike, except he uses vinyls.

    We think the oil pump went out. Not sure the light has been flickering for a few weeks, maybe a month.(yeah I know) :-/ Then it took out the engine. Good thing was I was only 40 miles from the house. I was just 2 hours south of home two days ago and today went almost to Alabama(Ft. Benning)(4 hours away) to work on an a/c and on the way home the lifters went crazy. I pulled over and checked the oil and knew it was gonna go and got back in to drive as far as I could and less than a mile Bam Gone...... ughhhhhhhh Hey good thing is, I bought the car new in 02 and put 163k HARD(did I say hard) driven miles all over the country with it. Body & Interior are still really good shape, so we're sinking a rebuilt into it. I took it to an Auto Zone about a month ago.and they hooked the puter up(cheapie puter) and it didn't say a thing about the oil pump, guess that's not hooked to the cars' computer..... Thanks Slo......I need a shot.......
