Question:
After changing my oil, my oil pressure gauge shows that there is no oil. What's wrong? I replaced the plug and filter, put in 6 quarts of oil into a 97 Jeep Cherokee and I let it sit for a while, started it up and my oil pressure showed 0. There were no leaks so I don't think it's a gasket. Any suggestions of what might be wrong with it. I started it and let it run for a while thinking that it just needed to build up some pressure, and it still showed 0 this morning. I guess I'm confused because I've never had this problem before. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
