- Thanks for some netters' answers to my last inquiry.
-
- I now found the oil pressure warning lamp functions like this:
- in the first 10 to 15 minutes of driving it is OK. But after that
- it is ON. I have to stop the car on the road side for about 20 minutes.
- After that it is OK again for the next 10 to 15 minutes.
-
- I plan to have the car repaired on Monday. But can anyone suggest a
- reason for that? Is it the oil filter blocked? It has just been changed one
- months ago. Anyone have similar experience or some suggestions please
- send me a mail. Thanks.
-
- H.P.

- P.S.
- Can I just change the oil filter without changing the oil itself?
- It's a Mitsubish lancer 1.3 gasoline engine.
