One of my starlets has always been a bit more reluctant than the others to build oil pressure quickly when cranking.
It's the lowest mileage and best looked after one of the lot!!!!
The car does tend to sit a lot as I don't use it much.
Today I changed the oil after it has sat a few months. I didn't start it, I just drained it out, replaced the filter and filled it back up. Even with the plugs out I couldn't get the oil light to go out before starting it.
I went with starting it anyway and it rattled a bit up the top end for a few seconds until the oil light went out and then was ok.
After a restart it is fine and whilst driving it is fine.
Anyone else have this issue?
