Sounds like you might have a bad oil pressure sending unit, however I previously worked at a chrysler garage, and from 99-01 the jeep 4.0 liter engines were notorious for cracked cylinder heads which allowed the coolant to mix with the engine oil, if your not using any coolant this probably isnt your problem however if you have been adding coolant to you jeep for awhile its bad news because the coolant mixing with your oil has worn out the camshaft bearings causing excessive oil clearances which shows up when your engine is hot and the engine is unable to maintain oil pressure because if the oil clearances being so great.....
Coolant is okay as I have recently replaced the radiator and the level is good since then. How difficult is the sending unit to replace? Shop or self?
The sending unit is easy to replace its on the passenger side of your engine about 5 inches straight back from your oil filter, it screws into the block.....
