A week ago my oil pressure gauge needle started to fickle at around 30 behind or just above when it is normally stays almost to 60 or on 60 when accelerating.

This started to happen after an oil change.

However I had no problems after this duebto me going from new Orleans to gulport Mississippi, which is an over am hour drive and back the next day.

Then earlier today my CD player/radio started to blink on and off certain times. Then when I hit the dash thebleft blinker came on and cannot go out. It stays on.

Plus the headlights stays on even though the switch is turned off. And once in a while the fuel gauge goes down to "empty" but goes back up even though there is fuel
