low oil pressure
hi i have a 1993 w250 with 201,xxx miles and i have been noticing that when the truck is at operating temperature, the oil pressure drops down to the first line on the stock oil pressure guage. it is due in 1,000 miles for a oil change but when its cold the pressure is on 3rd line. just seems like to big of a change for me to not worry. also the oil level is not low and i do not have any blow by.

when it was hot out here the fuel would be so thin it would drop the idle by 150RPM and it would make my oil light flicker then it would come up as you say if you hit the throttle
i would not worry about it i did and installed an aftermarket gauge with numbers and it would go from 30psi at idle to 60-70 at freeway speeds

The following day I put in a mechanical gauge and got 53 psi cold, and 49 psi hot warm Not bad for 392,000km!
The last picture is my '93 that had an even worse spring.
