Hey all. I just bought a 99 Cherokee Sport with 70k miles. I dont know whether its a cj, kj, etc. I'm still new with the Jeep lingo. At any rate, I noticed something in the truck today. The oil pressure gauge seems to fluctuate when I drive. It will be just a little above the middle dash on the gauge when I drive. If I am going down a hill, it goes a little below the hash. It JUST started to, when I am in park, drop down to almost the 1/4 hash. When I press the gas in park, the pressure gauge goes back up. Is this normal? I've never noticed anything like this in any of my previous cars. Thanks alot.

 

Cherokee's are XJ's
Your oil pressure guage is normal.

 

Ya, that happens to me, Pretty sure thats normal
