Pretty sure its the low oil level light, the low oil pressure light looks different I believe. Might want to check your dipstick. If you recently changed your oil and it's low already you also might want to see if you have any leaks.
Hope I helped.

"IGNORE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT" Famous last words.......
That light is the low oil level light. Either you didnt add enough oil, or need to fix the sensor in the oil pan.

Also, No AutoZone for a 93, Must be a 95 or above and OBDII for Autozone to scan it....
Check engine light codes are alot easer to check on these cars (OBD1).

can anyone get back to my comment above?
also how about this: that symbol could mean that the oil temperature is rising etc?is that a possibility, or is that a different symbol?
