How many miles on your motor.

I am now getting on my soap box:troll:

In the old day's mechanics did not put new engines in for oil leaks, remove parts and put new one's in until it was fixed.

Whenever I hear stories about my MAF and my O2 pump [secondary air pump], and oil separators and so forth. The so called mechanics are just R&R guy's putting new parts in until the light goes out and trying to fix it.

It's only money right...........

No one diagnosed your problem they just replaced stuff until it was better [temporary.]

Off the box now:

Don't worry about your oil light it is only blinking when your oil pressure drops when it idles to low.

Are you running 0-30 Mobil 1 [baby oil.]

If mileage gains and you run thinner oil you will hear the Tic Tic Tic.

In the old day's we liked a little tic tic tic because it meant the valves were a little loose and better loose then tight.

I would say you have an air leak, maybe from the components they put in failed or something new which was disturbed in the R&R process.

Monkeying around in the engine compartment can cause air leaks on an aged motor or for unlucky driver.
