Oil pressure drop.

My oil gauge drops to zero once the engine is up to temp, its fine when i first start it up, but after its warmed up it drops and bounces a lil, any suggestions?

thanks!

Try a mechanical pressure gauge to find out if it is really dropping to zero. It might only be a bad sending unit.
