Hello I have a 1988 subaru justy, I rebuild the engine cleaned everything in a engine shop... I put synthetic oil instead of the regular oil...
I have a problem when the engine idles the oil light flaches when I give a little gas the oil light stops flashing.
Anybody know why that could be?

What did you replace when you rebuilt the engine?

Almost everything... I had an engine rebuild shop clean all my parts. I didn't replace the oil pump it was in good shape

I'd recommend putting an oil pressure gauge on it to see where it's really at. If it's low I would suspect something was missed, main bearing, chain guide, piston rings, oil pump, something along those lines.
