That is a very good concept. If you think about it, what possible good can an oil pressure gauge do for you if one of the oil cooler lines fails at 3000 rpm? How often do you look at the gauge? If you scan them every three to five minutes, you are doing real well IMHO. That amount of time is forever, as you all know.
Makes the term "idiot light" seem not so stupid after all, especially if it is used with a gauge.
