have you checked your oil level?

If the oil level is good, then you might just have a problem with the gauge.

Put a mechanical gauge on it, and see what it is REALLY doing. If your oil pressure is indeed dropping to nothing, drop the pan, and see what it looks like in there.

Oh **** and also forgot to mention it idles between 400-500 rpm in drive and my volt needle begins to dive bomb if I don't get on it with like 30 I gets to about 8 and shacks a little .. I'm hoping it's like the battery or alternator and either oil pressure sensor or in the oil pan just dirty it stalled for the first time today in reverse
