I have a 2000 ford mustang gt, I just noticed the oil gauge goes down after I start driving, and back up when the rpm's go up. The oil light DOESN'T come on, but the gauge goes up and down. I was wondering if it is my oil pressure switch or something else. Can anyone please help!!!!!

Check the oil pressure with a mechanical gauge if normal replace the oil pressure switch abnormal could mean oil pump or engine bearings
