Change oil light

[efnfast]

I assume changing the bulb means pulling the dash. If I pull the dash, it's time to do all the bulbs. If I decide to pull the dash, it will have to wait until winter. I've never done somthing like that and am not willing to risk not having it back on the road.

Pulling the cluster is not that difficult.

Drop carpeted hush panel
Drop metal under-dash panel
Remove screws from cluster surround (can't fully remove until column is loosened
drop (but do not remove) steering column (2 big bolts)
4 screws hold cluster in to dash frame, then cluster pulls straight out.

I don't think my 91 lights this on Key-on, didn't know it was there until it came on to stay, around 3.5k miles after we bought it. I'll try to verify this.

I've got a couple other bulbs out, so I'll have to drop the dash. This winter. I'll have to remember this post so I can look for instruction. I never saw this light on until it indicated an oil change. Did it today by the way with Amsoil, poor mechanic got holered at by his boss, we spent over an hour doing an oil change. My regular shop lets me hang around my car while the mechanic works on it. They do an oil change for $20, and I supply the oil, but it gives me the opertunity to get a good look under my car.

Yah, I'd be curious if the 91 is different from other MYs.
