First off, why is it whenever i type in words in the search box "Oil pressure" it brings me back posts that have nothing to do w/ that? Anyways, i found a post about it but no solution so i was just wondering, my g/f is driving her 1998 cherokee classic w/ around 85k miles on it. Whenever she's in traffic she says the oil pressure gauge reads at the notch right above zero. And gets progressivly worse the longer she sits in traffic. She's at school now and is nervous about the drive back home this evening so can i tell her its ok for now till she gets home? Second the other post i found said it could be the oil pressure sending unit. I called the stealership b/c auto zone didnt carry it and they need the vin number for some retarded reason so i obviously couldnt get a price for one, anyone know if thats the cheap part to troubleshoot first? Or should i start w/ an oil filter? Finally Can it be something worse like the actually oil pump inside the oil pan? How difficult is that to replace? Thanks for any info.
P.S we run 10-30 if it makes a difference.
