oil pressure too high?

Post by boosted »

Hello,

i've got a problem. My oil pressure-gauge shows more then 3 quarters of the scale. with all the starions and 4g63 engines i had it always was a bit to low.

But in the lancer even 2 seconds after i start the engine it indicates such a high pressure, which i think is wrong! As far as i know, oil-pressure first has to build up, which takes some seconds...

Any suggestions what i could be?

the car was standing for about 2 months... And i dont really want to drive it until i know if its save for the engine :(

the only way to know for sure is to install an aftermarket oil press gauge. and measuere it again..
