LAST YEAR MY JEEPS OIL PRESSURE FELL TO 0 PSI AND THE CHECK GUAGES LIGHT CAME ON. I RECIEVED AN OIL CHANGE AND IT DID NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. EARLY THIS WEEK ONCE MY JEEP WARMED UP THE CHECK GAUGES LIGHT CAME ON AND THE PSI FELL TO 0 AGAIN. I GOT AN OIL CHANGE BUT I STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM.

IT ONLY FALLS TO 0 PSI WHEN THE CAR IS WARMED UP AND DRIVEN FOR A FEW MILES. WHEN I INITIALLY TURN THE CAR ON THE OIL PRESSURE IS AT 40 PSI WHERE IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN. WHEN I DO ACCELERATE THE OIL PRESSURE RETURNS TO 40 PSI UNTIL I STOP AT A LIGHT/STOP SIGN.
