Hello. I just registered and would love to get some of you all enthusiast advice. My mother has a xj8l . She has already put new transmission and a used motor in it mileage isn't that high runs great. But now I have low oil pressure and restricted performance. Please help. I'm hoping it's the oi sensor will fix the two

To paraphrase "Dirty Harry", Do you feel lucky? I would not recommend running the engine with out knowing for sure that the gauge is dead and that I have oil pressure. A replacement oil pressure switch is available for $8.53 from SNG Barratt (part #AJ84853). I would change it first or you can adapt a fitting, hose, and gauge to get a direct reading. I think the mounting hole is either 8mm or 10mm. You can remove the old switch and match up the end if you want to try to gauge it.
