When I start the car the oil light is on but when I put the car in drive and hit the accelerator the light goes off. Every time I stop at a stop light the light comes on and when the light turn green I hit the accelerator the light goes off. So what do you think the problem is, and where can I fine the area where the problem is located?

Find the oil pressure switch remove it and hook up a mechanical gauge-if pressure is normal -replace the oil pressure switch if abnormal could be the oil pump, engine bearings, etc-
