Default oil pressure issue

I have an issue that has been on and off. After driving for a period of time. When idle oil pressure drops to zero. Then if I stop the car and then start it it runs like crap. Won't rev high and sounds like it is choking. Im not sure what the issue is and any input would be great. Not sure why this is its just wierd.

sounds like an electrical issue - bad ground most likely. Check and freshen the grounding points and the battery terminals, and check for loose wires
