I called Smitty and told him my story. He did not comment on the oil,
he didn't think it'd matter much. I tend to agree, the oil leaks any
way and I'll be changing it again within a year.

This was exactly the problem. I was under the car looking to see if a
wire had come loose from the switch or solenoid (Smitty said to check
the solenoid first and work back). I could see from under the car that
a wire had come loose from the relay. Mystery solved. Thanks.
