    Noticed the oil lamp flicker the other day.

    oil had dripped from the filter, but not sure how long this had been happening. Tightened the filter and added some oil, this stopped the drip, and all was well.... for 2 days.

    Now the oil light is solid on, but only when idling. If I rev the engine it goes out.

    Do you reckon it's the oil filter that is busted, or a pump/more serious issue?

    Any help appreciated.

    Sorted. Oil Pump Pipe had split, and clip at end had rotted.

    Thanks to my mechanics for being top blokes as per!
