Re: oil pressure gauge
Check the wire on the oil sender. It looks like the first pic, and is located at the back of the engine in the second pic.

Re: oil pressure gauge
He's right, check the oil pressure sender connector. If the gauge is pegged, that means there is a break in the circuit.
Although, I thought that all the 90+ engines had the oil pressure sensor and switch in one unit attached to the engine just above the oil filter (accessible from underneath the car). Am I wrong?
