Sensor

Richard - the car does have a sensor, and that seems to be what was acting up previously. Has not come on since her original trip... And I did cover the dip tube to prevent water/dirt from entering. Thanks!

If you are concerned about oil on the engine, a couple of layers of alum foil and a cable tie should work fine.
