My POS civic
 
The other night I was driving home, my oil light would turn on and then blink and then turned off... and continue later. I checked the oil, it was fine, all the other fluid levels looked fine. I drove it yesterday to pay a couple bills. First was Sears. On the way there, after exiting 264, it stalled on me when I slowed down and I thought it was just me. Then it happened 3 more times between Circuit City and Sears, whenever I slowed down the oil light would come on then the battery light would come on, and it would die on me. So I called a couple people, one of them said to take it to Autozone on Holland and ask them to check the Battery/alternator. So I did that, the battery was fine, and the reading on the alternator would bounce around a bit. They said it might be just messed up connection/ or some corrosion... So I drive home, stalled few times till I got to the highway. On the highway everything was fine, when I got off, it stalled like 8 times. And the engine was starting to sound nasty, like a "CLACK CLACK CLACK.." Anyways, I left it parked in a nearby neighborhood, and walked home. Anyone know what it might be. I've heard Alternator connection, IAC or TPS sensor, oil pump(?), and off course... "Your engine's fucked, get a swap". What do ya'll think?
