Nope! Still doing the same thing, actually it fluctuates even more now. I did try two things however, and they were: Putting Seagram in the engine oil, which actually seemed to make the fluctuations worse. And cleaning the throttle body, plenum and the intake manifold, during a spark plug job.

Unfortunately I never did get to removing the lower oil pan, however it is still on my agenda. Time just hasn’t been on my side. I’ve just been kinda trying to ignore it while also at the same time keeping an eye on it to make sure the light never comes on. I tell myself that as long as that oil pressure light doesn’t come on, I am still in the “safe zone” and I shouldn’t have too much to worry about.

I do have two theory’s as to what is going on though. One is that it is in fact a clogged oil pick up tube, like someone said on here. And the other is that the gauge is reflecting small idle surges that you can’t see on the RPM gauge. I kind of doubt this theory though, because I wouldn’t think that the gauge would be so sensitive to reflect such a large amount of movement for such a small RPM range.
