That doesn;t sound 'strange' to me. Get your battery up to full charge. Remove and clean the spark plugs as they are probably all wet.

The oil pressure light is top row far left.

It really sounds like LMS to me. If you tried to start it without pushing the gas pedal completely to the floor, you flooded the cylinders again.

The 'pedal to the floor' will turn off the injectors during engine start. You want to run the starter continuously for 30 seconds - the oil light should then go out or flicker. At that point oil should have migrated to the rings and boosted compression enough to start firing. Wait for a few minutes to let the starter motor cool off, and then start the engine.

OR, with the spark plugs out, add a tablespoon of oil to each cylinder and replace the clean spark plugs. Use a drinking straw dipped into an oil can so that about 2 inches of oil is in the straw. Plug the top with your finger and transfer the end of the straw to the spark plug hole - no mess.

Remember, once the engine starts, let it run for 5 minutes or so before shutdown.
