I would not worry about it seems your being a tad over anal
My county only gets started and run about once a fortnight and the oil light stays on for about 5 to 10 secs its the norm the presure has to build enough to cut it out
If it was on for 30 sec or longer then you have a problem otherwise its all good happy isuzu'ing :D
Studies have shown that in most engines it takes ~30+ s to get full oil pressure everywhere in the engine. That is not a 4BD1-specific issue.Quote:

Any advice on fixing that?Quote:

The painfull upside down filter has a drain underneath so you can empty it before spining it of so you dont get covered in oil
I am making a remote mount for the twin spin on so i get longer oil service and a better spot to undo the filters and not need to make the spacer so they clear the front shaft

I have the upside down filter and I swear mine only takes about 2 seconds for the oil light to go out. If it was anywhere near 10 seconds, I reckon I would remember that as it seems like a long time. 30 seconds I would have concerns until I read this thread. Unfortunately I can't tell you what oil is in it as I haven't changed it yet!
Interesting in more details on this when you get to it. :)Quote:
