Update on Nothing

Remember a while back my 00 was acting up, knocking, sputtering, spitting, whatever you'll call it?

Well, funniest thing, I washed my car the other day and took it back out and since it hasn't made a sound. It runs perfect. In fact... I even have driven it long distances and it's running great. It's the craziest thing...

The only NEW symptom I noticed is this:

When I stop, and have no pedals pressed (gas or brake) my oil guage goes down to redline Low... but, my car is fine, the second i press the brake or the gas it jumps back up to normal (little bit past midline towards H)

Anyone have any idea, I'm really... at a loss now?

*Bump* Oil is still being dumb, any ideas? Or nothing to worry about?

Uhm, maybe your alternator is going bad so when it's idling it doesn't have enough juice but when ya give it power it is giving enough power? or a short? *shrugs* I'm not a big help with electrical shit lol

I had an S-10 that did that same exact thing. I took it to countless shops trying to figure it out, and came up empty every time. I figured it was nothing to worry about and drove it like that for the better part of 1 1/2 years. Nothing went wrong......I'm guessin youre ok.
