Just got back from the Boston Marathon the other night.  I did horribly in
the race and had to deal with a back injury for the final 14 miles but I did
finish.  The Westy did much better than I did and performed flawlessly
except for one relatively minor issue.  A few times when I started her up
the oil light and buzzer came on (At least I think it's the oil light -
maybe it's a picture of a water can.  It's the middle light on the right
side of the group of six lights on the dash).  The light/buzzer would go on
for a few minutes and then go off and that would be it until I started the
van again the next time.  All fluids were fine.  Is this just another one of
those whacky Vanagon things or is it something to worry about?
