#4 of 5 Oil Pressure guage by 63pro

Jun 08, 2010 (7:35 am)

I have a '91 Dakota with about 125K. I bought it used and oil was changed by dealer. I've noticed the oil pressure gauage rarely shows movement, no matter what the weather or how long its been driven. What is the best way to start handling this issue so guage works? I also have an oil leak but cannot determine its origin at this point, but it is not coming from newly changed valve gaskets.
