I'm not trying to be a ***** here, but are you actually reading what people
are posting here? Several of us have recommended that you install a
mechanical gage to verify the pressure, which most of us believe is not the
problem. You have made several posts saying this and that about what your
crooked or uninformed mechanic is telling you to do. Read this one more
time: INSTALL A MECHANICAL GAGE FIRST!
Regarding pulling the valve cover for blockage, it is a waste of money at
this point. Also, if the cover is not leaking, then don't f$#% with it. The
valve cover has been a leak point for many Jeepers. If the oil drains in the
head were in fact plugged, your engine would be letting you know every time
the oil pan runs dry by rattling and knocking.
I have seen so many electrical oil pressure gages give false reading, as
have many others reading and posting here. Not just on Jeeps either. The
gauge should be your first step.
One good way to stop getting good advice is to publicly show that when you
do get good advice repeatedly, you still don't follow it. A lot of these
guys that post here and own Jeeps know the little quirks they have, and also
know the best way to get your Jeep running the way it should be.

Re: Oil Pressure Hits Zero And Stays There- JGC '96
In one of the Spanish newsgroups we were trying to decide whether a
particular poster was "tomándonos el pelo" or just "un burro". This should
be pretty easy to figure out here.
