  View original topic: oil and Gen Light driving me nuts

I have oil, and this only happens when the headlights are on.
While driving at night with my headlights on my generator light is on, but very dim until I hit the brakes. That it killing me too.

When I come to a stop light or let the engine idle for a few minutes, with the headlights on the oil light comes on. If I tap the accelorator pedal the light goes out when the rpms increase. I cannot for the life of me figure this one out. ANY ideas?

Is the fan belt loose?
6 or 12 volt?
Terminations corroded?
Idiot lights swapped?
Are the idiot lights tied to the same circuit as the headlights?

12 volt auto stick 1970
Belt is ok, new coil, and cap and all that jazz. New regulator.

according to the wiring diagrams in a few different books, everything appears to be in order
