1997 TJ, 4.0L
Okay so, I've had this issue for the past 4 years that I've owned my Jeep. A couple minutes after I start driving, my oil pressure will drop from 40 down to 0 and will stay there. Check Gauges light will come on and it'll beep. After about 30 seconds, the needle will begin to move from 0 to 20, then back to 0. It'll start to move up just a little, then crash at 0 again. It'll keep doing this until I shut the Jeep off. I thought it was the oil pressure sensor, so I replaced it and it worked! Well, for about a month. Then, the cycle repeated. I was going to replace the senor again, but I'm not sure if something is actually wrong or why the sensor keeps failing. Thanks!
