weird oil pressure problem
weird oil pressure problem at idle its fine (hot): 45
accelerating 70+
But going from a stop the pressure rises to 70 then for a split second it dips back to 45-50 then back up to 70. It only happens in first gear, 2nd-4th maintain steady pressure. Any ideas

Try driving down a straight road, not just off a stop, and hold your gear/speed. If you accelerate and the oil psi dips slightly right before it goes up, it is likely a spun rod bearing.
If everything is fine, then it could be as simple as your sending unit is going bad.
either way, I'd like to hear about the above situation.
