I have had a couple experiences lately with low oil sensors not stopping the small engine even though there was hardly any oil in the engine. In the last case I drained out only 16 ozs of oil and the manual says it holds 1 1/2 qts. and the dipstick says 2 qts. The wires were attached to the sensor so is something just malfunctioning? It was a 20 HP Kohler 2 cyl (see my recent post on no oil on the dipstick)
Seems like the sensors should stop way sooner or we should not counrt on them to do their job.
