Paul, I'm not sure it would make any difference in a no oil pressure
scenario. If you loose oil pressure all at once, the difference between when
the light comes on from say 15 PSI or 7 PSI is in milliseconds with the
engine operating, faster than you can react. If you are looking for
something fairly accurate for normal oil pressure ranges a oil pressure
guage is the way to go.Mark Durham
