Default 1995 GS-R: Oil Pressure Light Blinking

Guy knows he has a lot of oil leaks in this car, and I know the significance of the red oil light in the instrument cluster. I read in the owners manual that the light illuminating means low oil pressure. Kind of a no brainer. However, what I'm seeing on this guys car is a steady on and off blinking of the red oil pressure light. Is there any specific reason, that you guys know of, that the oil pressure light would be blinking instead of being just illuminated?

The flashing means a momentary loss of pressure. I had this issue, GSR would stall out a lot when not in gear/moving. In the end I had stuck valves and a cracked landing. The momentary loss could be caused by anything, check your oil pressure, see if it's a fuel pump going out, sludge in the pan, blocked pickup etc etc.

I have an f2ob swap with the same issue of the oil light blinking. My vtec is not working because of what im thinking is a lack of oil pressure. I have all new gaskets, no leaks, correct oil and amount. No sludge build up of what i can see when i dropped my pan. Done a comp test and psi on all 4 and are good, done a comp drop also was good. Any idea's? Im stumped
