Im having some oil pressure problems. My oil light is flashing intermitantly but only after i have been running at freeway speeds and then only if im at idle. I havent seen it happen in stop and go traffic. I havent had a chance to put a real guage in the car so i dont know what the actually pressure is. Any Ideas?

Short of checking with a mechanical gauge, check the wire from the sender to be sure it doesn't have any bare spots that could be creating a ground.
The oil light switch completes a ground circuit to light the oil light.
I'm in LB, (close to Cal Worth-nothing F%&*),
and have a gauge you can stick on for a quick check. Let me know.
