What should the oil pressure be at idle in my '01 4.0 I just got the message that the oil pressure was low and the oil light came on. As soon as I accelerate it goes out. What is happening here? Oil level is not down much (less than a quart).

Is the oil pressure sensor a project I might be able to tackle or is a trip to the mechanics shop in my future?

it is the oil pressure sensor you can change it your self its above oil filter next to the front motor mount. You just remove the plug unscrew it and screw new one in plug it in and you done. Just make sure to do the job when car is cold otherwise you will burn ur hands. Its #3 on the picture  |

Mission accomplished. It wasn't that bad. Thanks for the illustrated diagram, it was a big help. This is the best forum on the internet. Extremely helpful.

See the diagram from pg. 8-558 of the 2001 FSM for the location of the 3.5 oil pressure sending unit. It's right above the oil filter.  |
