Default 1994 100s with 188k oil pressure problem

Alright, you start it and the oil pressure gauge stays at ZERO, sometimes its bump up to about 1.5 bar at idle. but otherwise i shut it right off. BUT if i start the car then juice it to 4800RPM the oil pressure pins the gauge, then stays around 1.8to 2 bar at idle. ive just changed the oil due to this problem, and checked the filter after install and it defiantly does get oil. every mechanic ive called has no idea what to suggest is wrong. Could it be something as simple as a clogged oil cooler line, or bad oil pressure sensor?(where is the freaking thing anyways...)

it does have a little bit of a ticking, but its a 12v and i expect it.

any opinions on how i should approach this?

Thanks,
Tyler
