It is 40 degrees out in Vermont. I always use 20/50 as per owners manual for a 1988 digifant engine. The warning light that goes off is located in the tachometer not the speedometer area. I would think that red light has to do with coolant not oil would that be correct.?

>> Going off the interstate the light and buzzer goes on for a second. If I accelerate slightly the light and buzzer goes off. Is this telling me that I am low in coolant? Coolant temperature is mid range all the time. Or is it and oil pressure issue? Read my Bentley and owners manual still no explanation.
