Jim this is a common problem - my 98 12V has been doing this for awhile now. Usually, the sender just craps out and you have to replace it. I installed a mechanical oil pressure guage in the cab because I was worried and hadnt replaced the sender yet. My oil pressure ranges from 30 psi to around 90 psi (winter months with 15W40 oil):
