A plaintiff on a tv court show complains that her car keeps cutting out,
turning off without being told to, and she takes it to a garage.

He puts it on the electronic whatever, and there is a code for the oil
pressure or the oil pressure switch. He looks and notes that wires
going by the oil pan are saturated in oil, so he replaces them and gives
her back the car. He also replaces the oil pressure sending switch,
either during the first visit or after she brings the car back.

She brings the car back within a day. and the respondent says, "The oil
pan gasket was leakiing and obviously it was necessary to r eplace the
gasket". He doe that and returns the car, but it cuts out even before
she gets home.

The rest of the story is complicated and a distraction but what do you
think of the mechanic so far?

he did ok but should of fixed the oil leak too.

this vehicle didnt happen to be a chevy cobalt with bad ignition switch by chance?

incidently will low oil pressure shut off a engine?
It will on many Chevies - sure would on a Vega!!! The fuel pump
circuit is fed by the starter switch and the oil ****er switch. It
runs when the engine is cranked, and when the engine has oil pressure.
