Default low oil pressure and jeep wont shut off

i have a 93 xj 4.0 ho that has low oil pressure and a delay when i turn the key off. untill its really warm. as long as i have good oil pressure it has a delay but any psi below 15 it doesnt have a delay any ideas on what could cause the delay and low oil pressure was told rod bearings or cam bearings for pressure. dont really know about the delay. oh and when i got it i had the worst sludge problem im thinking it hurt the internals a wee bit
