Thank You, Drisump. The oil is not disappearing any more / dipstick says max level. Coolant is there, normal level... ok, I will open it and check whether there is oil in it. but after the disappearing oil, we had an oil change and driven for 100 miles /. the engine was at full power, smooth...
No turbo.
the low pressure cutout is perhaps not it, since sometimes it ran for a minute with the light (and then the light disappeared) [unless it can somehow sense the pressure via different sensor, not the one connected to the warning light].
The pattern of the light on ONLY after start, and disappearing after a minute or so, makes me think that it is not a loose wire.
I will deal with the starter issue later... now I can try to put clean fuel into the fuel filter in case the low fuel in tank caused water/air to be sucked in [someone even told me that the excess injector cleaner could destroy the oil film in the engine and cause loss of lubrication...]... and try to start the engine {by going down the hill]. I just need to know whether that is safe to do... How can I tell if the engine is lubricated? When the lid where the oil is poured in from a bottle came open before, there was a thick mist coming our of the engine. If the mist will still be there, would it mean the the engine is lubricated? And the pump is OK?
