First off, all recommended maintenance and oil changes are up-to-date.
But every now and then, when ever I come to a complete stop, my oil light and check oil indicator comes on. Once I accelerate again, it goes off and comes back on when I stop again. The truck has oil in it, as I always still check it to make sure. If I am stopped and it happens, if I put the truck in neutral and accelerate, it will go off and come back on once idle again.

This does not happen everyday...sometimes days or even a week might pass by before it happens again. I just went to Firestone to see if it was something obvious, and they said they would not go further than checking the oil level and recommended an engine shop.

Has anyone experienced this or have a hunch on what it might be, oil pump or something?
