Take a look at the oil pressure switch on the back side of the engine . Part number 10 .Make sure the wire has a tight connection on the switch .Also make sure you coolant is top off in radiator to the top .There is low coolant sensor in the upper radiator of some units.Also if your fuel stop solenoid magnet is not holding it will shut down and oil pressure is the last thing to be see that is why the light comes on

Thank you again Tool_King. The coolant was low, not by much but still low. Coolant leaking from a brass tower coming from the Thermostat housing.

Thank you,
