Horrible oil pressure in Jeep XJ
I have a 2000 Jeep Cherokee with almost 240,000 miles. And at operating temp, it gets little to no oil pressure. It has a cylinder head leak could this help the problem?

Pull the oil pressure sensor and thread in a mechanical pressure gauge. See if the dash gauge is accurate first. Otherwise, it's probably time to rebuild the engine.

Cylinder head leak will not lower pressure.
