Oil gauge drops really low!

Hi guys,

My 94 SC has a problem. When I floor it, the oil gauge drops out of the normal range and the check gauges light comes on. I just got the car and I do not know how long this has been happening. The gauge drops when I accelerate fast or go above 4000 RPM. The car has plenty of oil.

Any thoughts, is it the oil pump or something simple?

Also, I found a lot of oil in my intake tube from the mass air sensor to the trottle body. Everything was soaked. How is this possible and what is the solution? Thank you,

Brad
 
You may want to inspectthe wire too. I had the same problem and replaced the sending unit with no improvment but then it dropped totally off with no reading. When I gave the wire a tug it came off in my hand. It is in a bad spot and hard to replace easily but when I spliced everything back it works like a champ now.
