Wayne, to be honest with you, the only thing that would really save me would be an AccuSump (which I don't have) plus buzzer and light. I look at my gauges from time to time while I'm driving, but if all of a sudden I lost oil pressure (maybe some sort of pump failure) I would not see it on the gauge, and I don't think I would hear a buzzer over my pipes -- and if I did, I couldn't think fast enough to do something to save my engine anyway. I know me; if I heard that buzzer go off I would first think "Now what the hell is that? Oh yeah, it's my oil pressure buzzer -- WTF? My oil pressure gauge says zero! I better pull off." By that time my brain connected with my foot and fingers I will have probaby fried my engine.
