i have a ls vtec with type r head. my oil psi used to be 75 at like 3 grand. now its like 90 at 3 grand? this just started after i changed my oil and filter

 

An old filter can cause a pressure drop. I can tell when the filter is clogged on my Corolla because the oil pressure gauge doesn't go beyond halfway. Quick change and back to normal.

 

when the car is warmed up compltely and im driving, is 95 pounds of pressure too high at 3 thousand RPMS?
it used to only reach 75 at 3 grand.

 

90 is high, it should be around 70 at 3k

 

What weight oil are you using? It will make a difference in oil pressure.

 

90 is pretty high.

 

Is it an electric or mechanical gauge?

I have an electric gauge and the sensor got clogged one time and my readings were all funky for a while, then I cleaned it out and it started working again....

You shouldn't be at 90 psi @ 3k when your car is warm...I only get that high when my car is cold....

That's weird man..

 

im using 10w40. gauge is mechanical. could it be that i have to much oil?
