Default 89 CRX Dx Oil Light on....

Before I started pulling part off my car I wanted to get some other opinions. The oil light on my gauges keeps coming when I drive. I was told this is because I have low oil pressure. Ok, so this means I can have a bad oil pump or a bad pressure sensor. This is the issue, the light doesn't seem to be consistent. One day it will come on right away, the next won't come on at all. One day it will go on after normal driving for 20 mins, the next it will go on after a few miles at 75 mph on the highway.

Before I start pulling stuff apart, does this sound normal for a bad oil pump, or does it seem like a bad pressure sensor. I know I can do a manual oil pressure test. I am trying to locate where I can get a gauge for that.

Thanks,
John
