Chicken or egg: Is the oil system faulty, causing the indicator and failure to start, or is the engine's failing to run causing insufficient oil pressure and consequent oil light?

Both times, was it the same gas station?

gtpt:If I cant start the car b/c the oil sensor is causing the engine to think I dont have enough oil, then YES there is a correlation b/t a faulty sensor and the car not starting...

rolo: better be the first explaination...different gas stations.

I mean, I tried to start the thing 4-5 times and with each crank the car would start then die faster and faster until it wouldnt turn over at all. Even after adding oil it wouldnt turn over. It took like 15 minutes for it to turnover and run.
Bah
