losing oil pressure

I have a weird problem on my 83' 300 SD.
I get in the car start it up and volia, oil pressure measures 3 on the gauge looks perfect but once the car get heated up after a matter of 3- 5 minutes the gauge is no longer working just sitting on zero and at times when I take off from a stop sign lets say my gauge might jump up a little bit.
does anybody have any idea what might be the problem and how I could fix it.
I know its not an actual pressure problem I've drove 2000 miles with the gauge like that.

thanks guys
