Hi!



My sons tj has JUST started showing some lower oil pressure readings. It has been a little over 40 at highway speeds, but now has dropped to around



32 or so. (This is after driving for awhile...the oil pressures drops as the engine gets warmer...) He has about 100,000 miles on it. It is a 4 cylinder. Should I just try a new sending unit?

thanks cal


When was the last oil change? If the oil is a little past due, fresh oil will make that much of a difference.

oil change was in the last 2 weeks.... thanks!

Just needed the sending unit. Back up to normal now!

Thanks Bill, You said earlier that the sending units tend to leak oil if going bad...and his did have some oil leakage. Thanks for the help!
