Get a real oil pressure gauge, I have just a cheap $20 dollar one that I throw on for a bit after rebuilds. Pull the ecu fuse and crank on it til you get above 10psi, if you get that start it and see what you get. Very odd that you got nothing on a cold start, either that sensor went bad or you have bigger issues.

actually what happen my ecu went bad and the car would not start and i crank it so many times, i check the cam sensor the injector relay, and etc i replaced the ecu and the car started i don;t have oil pressure and my oil light is on and i went the next step to see if the oil is skuirting in the valve cover at the cams and see no oil... and before that the oil pressure was perfect can ran perfect no smoke smoth running no lifter tik at all what it chould be i think it could be the oil pump.. can oil pump can just fail completely like that ......
