Does your temorary gas tank have a vent? Maybe there's a vacuum lock? Try it with the top off the tank.

See the comments in your engine flush thread, perhaps?
Oil pressure will certainly vary with engine speed....faster engine speed means faster oil pump speed which means more oil being pumped which means more pressure.

took the mini out for a ride , 2 rounds along the block suddenly it ran sluggish and stalled, i noticed the oil gauge went down to 20, and when i try to accelerate it goes up to about 60%, shouldnt the needle stay up when the engine is running? even at idle? what could be the problem?? it starts right up but sluggish when accelerating then stalls
