Q: When I come to a stop sign the oil light pops on and the car feels like it is going to stall
When I come to a stop oil pressure light comes on. Rpm drops to around 500 maybe 600. Feels like it is going to stall out. Just changed the oil and fuel pressure regulator. Oil level is good no overheating. Light doesn't come on while driving only at stops.
My car has 124576 miles.
