Default Oil Pressure-Drops under hard acceleration

Oil Pressure gauge drops under hard acceleration in first and 2nd gear. I'm told could be low oil, oil sending unit and or sensor or oil pump. Has anyone else experienced this, and know of a fix to it?

Well, don't you know if you have enough oil in your car?

That sounds like faulty oil pump symptoms. I would say its time for a new pump.

Edit- You might want to put this in a different section. The General Maintenance and Repairs forum might be your best bet. I say that just because this sections doesn't get much traffic at all.
