Whenever the oil pressure warning light comes on-even intermittently-pull the vehicle over to a safe place and shut off the engine ASAP. An engine with low oil pressure can be ruined in a matter of seconds. If the vehicle has truly lost oil pressure, do not attempt to restart the engine. You can check the engine oil level, but it's best to have the vehicle towed to a qualified repair shop. Be sure the shop knows the oil pressure light came on so the technician can take the necessary precautions when diagnosing the problem.
