[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 430983, member: 18789"] I would guess you're burning it as a leak of that quantity would probably be very visible. although you would think you would have blue exhaust smoke but sometime it isn't the case, so it's hard to say. Not sure what's up with the compression on cyl 6. Could be bad rings, I really don't know. As for the oil pressure gauge, is this the oil pressure gauge on the newer cluster (the one with working water temp?) And it's acting the same as the other ones too? If so, you may try another sending unit despite the existing one being new. You might try to source out a good brand there too. Mopar for 1994-1995 is 56026779. I see 56026779AB is available. don't know why 1993 used a different one and it's only made more confusing at the parts stores where they sell 5 different ones with no telling the differences between them other than appearance. Your oil pressure fluctuation is like none I have ever seen and to me, no way that is real. Oil pumps grow weaker as they wear and get older, they don't cause random fluctuation like that. They are a simple mechanical part. This screams bad gauge/sender issue, which given you have tried two known good clusters, I'm placing bets on the sending unit. I would try the 56026779AB [URL='https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007O3RKO0/?tag=yjforum-20']here[/URL]. I see no reason why it wouldn't work, it's the same 1 terminal sender that I have and I know the gauges and sender function didn't change from 93 to 94. disregard the amazon pic, it is wrong but the reviews say you get the right part.
