My car was fine when i bought it in july of this year but since mid august my oil pressure gauge has been flickering when i drive. When i hit the gas it reads strong but when i let off the gas it flickers low, sometimes to the red and cuts off and i have to restart. Im jus wondering what could be the cause of this.
