[QUOTE="Do_, post: 1400759, member: 556295"] After working and working on our Dodge Dakota, we've come to the conclusion that a problem we thought was oil pump related is electrical related. The guage would randomly read 0 while driving and so we would shut it off. If you turned it back on right after though it had full pressure.
