I just purchased the jeep. Took it to get the oil changed and had the engine flushed. The oil pressure on the way there seemed normal 35 @ idle and 60ish while driving. After they finished we went cruising for about 15- 20 miles. Stop and started again and the guage pegged out at about 2500rpm. I was in 3rd. Shifted to 4th it dropped back down to 60 and at stop light stayed at 35. But, on excelleration it pegged out again, then dropped. Back and forth. What is going on???
