[T3] Oil sensor

[oofacts@earthlink.net]

I dont trust my oil sensor. Checked my oil today and it was remarkably low
- basically indicating gone. Granted, I'd just been driving and the car
smelled hot. I was checking the oil mostly just to check the temp. of the
dipstick and see if any smoke was coming out. (temp was fine by the way.
I'll just never get this car tuned up right with these damn baffling Webers
and my own lack of experience. )
Anyway. My oil light comes on at startup and immediately goes out as it
should. I just cant help but think it should be on when the oil level is
this low. The engine must have to be bone dry before it goes on otherwise.
Is there any way to test the sensor? Finally, when I checked the oil this
am before all this happened, it was at midpoint. I did some heavy driving
today, but should the oil be dropping like this? I've been checking it
everyday in the morning and the level has consistently beenlÁñver since
I changed it in October.
Please advise...
