97 cadillac deville computer screen says "OIL PRESSURE LOW" after driving 20 minutes then says "STOP ENGINE" but continues to drive fine. What and how much of a repair would this be and is this car worth buying for $1800 with 89K?

Dunno the costs of repairs -

Oil pressure:
Check the oil pressure with a mechanical gauge,if normal replace the oil pressure switch. If abnormal could mean oil pump and engine bearing.
