Last time I had that happen it was a weak pressure regulator spring.  I didn't have another one so I just stretched it a little and it worked fine.

The only surprise (read: disappointment) this morning was the
TEMP/PRES light came on with the car stopped and the engine idling in
Drive after fifteen minutes driving at 55-65 mph. As soon as I shifted
to Neutral, the light went off. I'm thinking (read: hoping) that all I
need to do is install a new sender or, at the worst, a thinner gasket
under the oil pump cover. I will, however, hook up a pressure gage
before doing anything more.
