1996 Oil Light problems

[brokejeep]

Help, I have a 1996 cherokee 4cy. I recently had problems with the oil pressure light coming on. I took it to a shop and they looked at the oil pump and said it was fine. Upon changing the oil the light discontinued coming on so I assumed all was fine.

2 day's ago I got my oil changed. Have driven to work which was over 60miles total there and back. No problems.

When I started to drive out of town today the oil light came on and wouldn't go away. Barley made it home, with all the noise that it was making. Hope I didn't hurt it too bad. Can anyone help? Not sure what the deal is.

Thanks
