91 vert oil pressure issues

Ok right before I went on a two month deployment, my oil pressure gauge went all over the place. 0 to 100+psi. Didn't matter the load on the engine or anything like that. It finally settled to the top peg (100+) and hasn't moved. Even when the car is off. I cleaned the sender unit connection and the ground, but that is it. I figure it is the sender unit, but I haven't chased wires or voltages yet. So if anybody has any ideas let me know. I have about three weeks till I disappear for month again to try to get it fixed.
