I replaced all of the lights behind my gauges. For some reason, after I finished, the temperature dummy light doesn't come on with the rest of the dash lights when I turn the key. Should I even worry about fixing it? It worked fine before changing the lights, and when I discovered it didn't come on anymore I swapped the old non-LED light back in. Still didn't work. No idea what could have caused it to stop working? Cleaned the contact points, etc. Everything is making contact fine.

Mostly when the engine still warms up, it stutters on medium to hard acceleration up hill. Refresh grounds and report back?
Also I have oil coming out of my valve cover, mostly by the fill cap. Think it burst oil out before it warms up the whole way and the pressure drops.
