Today I drove to work and everything was normal with my jeep. When I started my jeep again to go home, my check gauges light came on and my oil pressure gauge was registering nothing. I checked my oil and it was good (although its been more like 5000 instead of my usual 3000 since my last change) I took my chances and drove it home (about 14 miles - no highway) without any problems, everything sounds and runs normally. Once home, i checked out the sending unit and it looks normal. I also checked the wires. When I turn off the jeep I can hear the normal trickling sound of the oil flowing back down (might be coolant though, I'm not sure) and i can see a little bit of oil flowing into the rockers under the valve cover through the fill hole when the motor is on. When I rev the jeep up a bit (2000 rpms) the guage will move up a little bit and the light will turn off but it goes back down once i let off the gas. Does anyone have any experience with this? What should I check next? Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! 2000 XJ sport 4.0 159,000 miles.
