Is it an electric or mechanical guage? I had an 856 that just had an idiot light and no guage for oil pressure.
I was out plowing one day and the light began to flicker intermittently. I was near the end, only a couple hundred yards from my shop so I carefully idled to the shop. I checked it out and found the insullation on the wire to the sending unit had worn through where it rubbed against something and was shorting. A few layers of electical tape and a HUGE sigh of relief and I went back to plowing.
As I recall, the sender was on the left side of the engine just above the frame rail. If your guage is electrical, I'd check to make sure all of the connections are clean and the insullation isn't worn off anywhere. If the wiring is all good and the connections clean, I'd try a different sender. If it's a mechanical guage, you might just plug in a different guage and see what happens.
