All good. I was definitely seeing the 'forest' on that one...saying,
"effin' really?!!".

1998 Honda Accord EX V6 265k miles. No leaks! No smoke on start-up
or otherwise. Oil changed by me every 3-5k like a crackhead. No
prior indications. Nothing else wrong or ongoing. Yes, oil level at
FULL. Engine is still really tight.
-
STORY: Flickering oil light showed suddenly...no prior random single
flickers...just one night, at idle, it started the rapid flicker at
idle. Came and went. Not always, not every idle. Seemingly just
when it chooses. It can disappear for a day or two. Or keep it up
for a day or two.
-
HOWEVER, of note, the VERY lightest touch on the accel pedal
(equivalent of a feather...) makes it disappear always. Never seen it
at any speed other than idle, randomly.
-
Purchased but haven't installed new pressure sender, btw.
- Thoughts?

What about rolling down the highway at speed but you put it into neutral
and idle the engine....????

How about car sitting parked, tranny in park, car idling?

If it happens then, what happens when you give a VERY light touch on the
gas pedal?

Just curious.
