What would cause the engine oil pressure gauge to rise?
When the oil pressure guage is in the high position, it means you have good oil pressure. As your car warms up, the pressure should drop a little. The guage will usually drop at stop signs and stop lights and then go up as you accelerate. If your guage goes to high and stays there, you could have a problem with your sending unit or you could have too much oil in the car.
On a 1996 Grand Cherokee Laredo What would cause the oil pressure gauge to fall all the way to zero when coming to a complete stop and having the check gauges light come on then returning to normal?
Your cam bearings or crank bearings are worn to the point where your oil is no longer going to pump through the journals to the top of the engine . You need new bearings. The engine needs to be over halled.
How does a hydrostatic valve work?
A Hydrostatic valve is basically a plug that stop water coming down out of the pool, but when the water pressure under the pool gets higher then the pressure in the pool it will let water into the pool from underneath in order to stop the pool from floating in ground water.

The pressure is lower as the engine is at slower rpms. The oil filter could be clogged or the oil pump might be going bad.
Is it normal for the oil gauge to drop down very low at a stop?
It is normal for the pressure to drop. It depends what you mean by "very low". Check the oil level and the condition of the oil and filter. The oil and filter may need changing.

What is normal oil pressure for a 1992 Chevy 5.7L 350?
It depends on how your gauge is callibrated. It should be somewhere near the center of the gauge and shouldn't drop much when it's idling or hot. The manufacturer recommends a specific "weight" of oil, but when the engine gets older and worn the pressure will drop when hot and at an idle unless you select a higher viscosity oil. Oil lines have a pressure regulator which keeps the oil pressure from going too high. You should be able to see where the pressure is set when you first start the engine and everything is cold; the gauge should go up to that point and stop there consistently and should also stop there when you're running at highway speed. If the oil pressure drops much below that point when you're idling, the main and/or rod bearings are wearing which allows too much oil past.Again, IF the oil pressure is low, ahigher viscosity oil will staypressurized in the oil linesa little longer and will keep the engine from failing. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me directly.
