I have a 93 Jeep Cherokee. When I am driving the oil pressure gauge is as far up as it can go. When I slow down it goes to the middle and drops even lower to 10 to 15. It jumps all over, up and down.

Hi there,

Start with checking the engine oil pressure with a mechanical gauge, this will give us the actual pressure readings, you may just have a faulty sender or gauge, start here.
