Not trying to hi jack the thread or nothing, but where'* the Oil Pressure sender on my 95? If anyone happens to know?
It looks like GM used two oil level sensors that take different wiring plugs.

On 3800 series 2 motors this sensor threads in the front side of the oil pan below the AC compressor.

My 96 does the exact same thing when starting up.
The oil level is fine. I have been meaning to take the bulb out if I ever work on the dash.
You do not have to remove the oil pan to get the oil level sensor out on a 96.
Just simply unplug and unscrew it. Its clear and rather long an in the front of the pan.
I think they are around $20 at Auto Zone.
Or you can just ignor it like I do.

Be careful not to break it when removing it. It is long and you'll have to insert/remove it on an angle to get it in and out. But there IS clearance to do so. I just had to do it on my 99
BTW, GM does not sell new o-rings for the level sensor. You have to either reuse the old one (which I did) or take the old one to AutoZone (or the like) to get a fresh one according to a like size.
