I took my jeep mudding and it got sumbreged under water. we got it out and have been flushing the system trying to make sure no water is there. but now when we start it the oil pressure jumps up to normal and then back to zero. I was wondering what i could do to solve this problem

Hi there,

Check the oil pressure with a mechanical gauge first, just to see what the pressure is, report back your findings.
