my oil pressure gauge used to read 20-22psi at fully warmed up idle, now it reads 31-32. car seems like its running fine.

oil is 1800 miles old

plugs are 400 miles old

what could cause the rise in oil pressure?

 

is it really cold outside? your intake temps could be lower hence lowering your oil temp.

dont worry bout it

it is a bit colder outside but nothing drastic the car hasnt seen before though

 

Did you change the weight of the oil? if not im going with the Cold thing as well. i live where it gets 10-20 degree's on average in the winter and my oil pressure usually is about 13-15 psi more in the winter in the work truck

 

nah the weight of the oil is the same 10w30

 

?

 

anybody
