I know this is a ZJ question, but I think it's general too, so...

OK, they could be unrelated, but... yesterday my wife calls me up and says the ZJ flashed a low radiator fluid light. She added some water to the dry supply bottle and the light went out. I then drove it a few miles and the oil pressure guage went crazy, going from 40ish (the middle mark) down to near 0. As it say there, cool radiator fluid was dripping down on the ground (I couldn't get under th check from where though) I added 2.5 qts of oil and it's now about 1/3 between add and full. Oil is 2600 miles old. When I filled it, I drove 4 miles home, and the oil level looks unchanged.

So, I know the engine could just have decided to start using more oil, and the wife will need to check it, and some crack in hose could be causing the leak, but I'd like some opinions before it goes back on the road.

Ohh dang, didnt know you had a 5.9!! Gosh I almost got one of those when I was looking at Jeeps. Those things are sweet!

I would start with the rad(those plastic side caps crack) and the water pump.

Not to sure what to think about the oil issue.
