Re: lose of oil pressure
The oil light came on because of low idle or stalling issue.
Now the starting problem, does the starter turn over the engine?
Security light on? Check the battery connections, ground to the block, 12 v. at large starter wire (all the time), 12v. at small wire at starter when cranking.

Im in loxahatchee fla. if you were local Id have suggested I could look it over,or maybe one of the guys on the site located in your area, could help you out, you first need to verify the oil level on the dipstick, and get the starter to spin the engine and determine your getting fuel pressure, oil pressure and spark at the plugs
