Hi Guys
Im a new member, Ive been a obeserver for a while now. Reading and absorbing bits and peices of info. So with that said i finally have a question actutally i have a few but this one is a easy to explain one.
Here is the thing, I have a Explorer Sport 2001, its got a 4.0 SOHC Engine, About 166000 miles on it. Just got it actually.So far i love it - But here is the thing, driving down the road after it warms up and i come to a stop or slow down the oil guage jumps.. From the low to the middle where it sits normally. When stopped and i rev the engine it does the same thing. Jumps around. I took a video of this with my phone and i have included the link. Sorry about the angle and jumpeness of the video. (and the angle) lool

As you can see it jumps around as I rev the engine... Soo what could it be?. I checked the oil and there is more than enough.. and the engine is not overheating as you can see by the temp guage.
Is this anything to worry about? i have been reading that the guage is actually just a fake one ..
Thanks for reading my long post
