uh oh oil pressure is high
Ok so I made a video of my car last week and someone posted a comment saying "why is your oil pressure so high" I looked and finally saw it for my self. To get to the point what is the problem. Thanks

Re: uh oh oil pressure is high
when it is cold out and you said you had just started it up they will always read higher till the engine is fully warmed up, mine and wuite a few other ppl i know have the same issue, once it warms up they will drop to about 30-40 psi. mine is a different story.since i have a 355 decently built with a high volume oil pump when mine is cold it has 75 psi at idle then once it warms up its 45-50. so i dont think you have anything to worry about

Re: uh oh oil pressure is high
Yeah, whoever made the comment obviously didn't bother to look at your temp sensor, completely normal.
