Normally this means you are low of oil. It can also be a weak fuel pump that needs replacing or a defective oil pressure sending unit. Start by making sure your oil level is on the full mark after the engine has set for 30 minutes. If it is full then replace the oil pressure sending unit. If you still have the problem seek professional help.

Why does your Oil light come on and you can't accelerate well after you stop at a stop sign or red light?
The oil light is a red warning light that is telling you that the engine oil pressure is low or non-existent and to stop. Severe engine damage will occur if you continue to drive the vehicle. I would suspect you have already done serious damage to this engine. It is not accelerating very well because it is dying from a lack of lubrication. Remember RED means STOP.

What causes the oil light to come on when the oil is full on a 1995 pontiac firebird?
The light is not an oil light, it is an oil pressure warning light. It is on because you have low oil pressure. Stop driving this vehicle until you find out why the pressure is low. I would start by replacing the oil pressure sending unit as it may be defective. It that does not solve the problem then seek professional help.
