The oil level in the car is fine, in fact I probably have a tad too much in the oil pan. The oil pressure gauge itself is fine. A steady 3 at higher speeds, dropping to around 1.5 at idle.
The problem is just that the Low Oil Warning light comes on and stays on when I hit 60mph. It goes off again as soon as I drop back to lower speeds.
I don't know if the oil pump is not working hard enough to put oil through the case, or if its probably just the oil level sending unit.
I think that makes more sense.
Sorry,
Craig

Either the sensor or wiring is damaged.
There is a 50/50 chance the engine mounts may be bad also.
