[V8] IC cluster (again)

[Ingo D. Rautenberg]

Jason,

I have to disagree with you here.  IMO it points to a ground problem.  When
the light flashes on, the gauge actually increases it's oil pressure reading
in concert with the flashing (provided it isn't pegged at 5 bar anyways).
Plus the oil pressure warning light comes on randomly -- often in tandem
with the low fuel light (regardless what the actual fuel level is).  Anyhow,
I'm definitely going to disassemble and treat all the connectors this
weekend and advise my results.  As to the sudden dead gauge problem -- hope
to take care of that one, too.

Ingo
