I have not had any electrical issues. Currently I am dealing with a coolant leak from the radiator. It is a tiny hole, but it does go thru coolant. I am hoping it remains strictly upkeep. The estimate I got to replace the radiatior is quite high unfortunatly.

Re the radiator and a leak.
 
I've used the Dexcool only. I had about 82K on my 1998 when I got the radiator fixed. A slight crack was located under pressure at the top neck by the hose which had probably been that way for about 1.5 years because I was losing coolant very slowly. Could smell it very sporadically but could never see a leak. Crack= it wasn't the Dexcool that caused it, nor had the car ever overheated.
 
Radiator part $339 with $187 in labor. Good time to check the water pump, thermostat, and upper/lower radiator hoses if they are original: $246 parts and shop supplies and $170 in labor. My local mechanic is not cheap, but the car comes back fixed first time every time. No bring backs and no breakdowns on the road.

low oil pressure indicator on '97 Olds Aurora by pfarney

My Aurora, after reaching normal operating temp, begins to chime & low oil pressure light comes on at low idle, goes away as soon as I increase the rpm's to about 1,000. I've replaced the oil pressure sending unit,..this problem began right after a GM dealership removed & rebuilt the heads due to excessive oil leaks. The engine never kncks, smokes, overheats, or uses any oil. The oil remains amber colored between changes. Any suggestions?

Did you replace the oil pressure sending unit AFTER you noticed the pressure issue or when you had the head work done?
