Oil Pressure
My car seems to have a oil guage or oil pressure problem, not sure what though. I can start my car have plenty of oil pressure, then run my car for about 5 mins and it will drop to nothing, then i will be running down the road and get on it and the oil pressure will jump back up, but not sure if its bad guage or what it is. Any Ideas?

Check the oil pressure sender connection, a lot of times it comes loose and gives a false reading. The stock sensor really is junk.
It's located near the spark plugs, a small little cylinder with an electrical clip connected to it. Also try cleaning the connection, let me know if it helps.
