Oil light comes on when I stop goes out when I step on gas pedal and continue to drive I recently had a oil change done that is when this started to happen. Car is not low on oil.

Have the oil pressure checked with a mechanical gauge. If it's okay, suspect a defective sending unit, especially if it is leaking.

You really need to list the engine size when discussing engine problems. Six pounds of oil pressure is WAY too low at idle for most engines but is perfectly normal for the 3.0L engine.
