I have a 1992 Nissan Sentra over 170k on the odometer well the oil light flickers after i have been driving for awhile only when i come to a complete stop . I have checked the oil and the transmission on many ocassions and it is fine but the radiator seems to have oil leaking into it and empties fast but the oil is always full . Any suggestions ?

Most likely you have a blown head gasket or cracked head. Oil in the water almost always indicates this. You have to decide how much you really like this car because repair expense is gonna be kinda high

You can have the oil pressure sensor going bad. So when you come to a stop and the engine idles it will fliker.
