blinking oil light, oil is fine
My oil light comes on sometimes and blinks. 2.2l 1996 accord
If I stop the car and turn it off it doesn't come back on. Oil is fine.
What should I be looking for?

The oil light is for pressure, not oil level. it is common for these vehicles to have a bad oil pressure sensor. They are cheap and is located directly above the oil filter.
I'd start with that. Next is going to be plugged or non-working oil pump.

The sensors can fail. If the sensor is oily/leaking then there will not be a pressure differential and the sensor will not function properly. If the sensor is leaking it's most likely in need of replacement.
