I have a 2000 toyota tundra and my vehicle has been showing a low oil pressure gauge. What can I do to solve this problem? When I run the vehicle the gauge shows 3/4 and when I'm at a stop light the gauge shows 1/4.

the oil pressure will generally be lower at idle because the engien is running slower and not as much pressure will build up. you could try taking it in and having the idle turned up a bit but i wouldnt worry about it unless it just started doing this.
