Engine oil level. Engines with no oil overheat and seize up. Have it checked and/or fixed before you trash your car.

Oil pump failing? :shrug:

Is the oil pump connected to the serpentine belt or whatever it is in the engine?

How far is it fluttering, like a little wobble or is it going through wild gyrations? The urgency with which you should get it checked out is directly proportional with how far it's moving.

When's the last time you checked or changed the oil? If you've got a low oil level and/or sludge plugging up the filter, it could be collecting somewhere or gumming up the oil pump and then getting pumped through when the pressure builds up enough.

it's most likely just the thing that sends information to it being bad, a cheap 30 buck part. maybe you have too little oil. maybe it's more serious.

I got my '84 Nissan Pulsar pinned at 125 on the interstate.
Downhill through Virginia.
With a tailwind.

The best is when I blew by a cop and he looked as shocked as I was. Didn't even give chase. Those were the days. Nowadays they'd open fire.

Oil pressure. It's probably just the sender/sensor loving around. You could probably get a new one for like $20 to see if it's the issue.

It’s hard to tell if that’s oil pressure or oil temp. If it’s oil pressure it’s fine. If it’s oil temp it’s also fine because that looks like a lovely ford dash and we need less of those shitcans on the road.

Oil is rapidly disappearing and reappearing in your engine, OP. THis is very rare and lucky

Since the low side is marked with red I’m going with oil pressure. Try draining oil out of that shitmobile until the gauge stays in the red area.

OP, you need to re activate your oil gauge. Pull into the nearest busy parking lot, open the hood and yell "ACTIVATE!!!" as loud as you can at the engine.

its oil pressure, if you overheat oil in a passenger car you already boiled out all the coolant most likely
