91 Cressy oil light on, off when accelerate

I read all the posts here. I think I am running 10W/30. I have 2K on the oil change that a local mechanic did, put in too much oil (on my 88 dodge truck as well).

The oil light goes off under strong acceleration (not 25-30 in town). But it only just came on today (Fri) and I have to make a trip of about 3.5 hours on Monday. Most of the time driving it today it was on.

Sounds like maybe a sensor problem (though had run it on a forest dirt road the last time I drove it).

I was hoping to be able to drive the 3.5 hrs to the airport and then take care of it on the return, when I have time and am passing through cities (from Chico, CA on north). It is about 1.5 hrs to get to a place where I can get a filter and oil to change it.
