Hey guys been doin a bit more pokin in to my new to me car.. When its first started oil pressure sits at about half jumps up when ya hit the gas. But when it get warm to make the rad fan turn on oil pressure sits at about red line..

 

dont trust the stock gauge , go buy a cheap 15$ mechanical oil presure gauge and hook it up temporaily to verify oil presure

to hook it up u can unscrew the stock sending unit above the oil filter and hook the mechnical gauge in its place

 

Hi project89.
I def will check with a pressure gauge. There are no knocks or ticks in the motor so.. I cant see it being the motor. I would think different if the gauge did not jump up when ya hit the gas. It has a stumble when ya first hit the gas but seems to run fine when if ur on it.

 

so im pretty sure i may have found the problem..lol or part of it..
the sensor by the oil filter (oil pressure) i think. was barely threaded into its base. also had a small leak from there too. seems better since i tightened it.
