My oil pressure is too high

Post by dougburdick »

On my 2lt spider I typically see around 60psi or so at 60mph with a stewart warner mechanical gauge. I have just installed a speed hut electronic gauge with their sending unit in my 76 1.8 scorpion, and I'm seeing 90+ at 60mph. I'm running Moble 1 10w30 pure synthic and a Fram ph-16 filter.Any thoughts?

Make sure the sending unit is compatible with the gauge, and not made for an idiot light.
