- The oil pressure gauge pickup is down stream of the cooler. If the cooler was restricted, it would show less pressure. I agree, if you call stuck "bad". It can be a very serious problem. High pressu

- A bad oil pressure relief valve is a fairly serious problem. I think it is worth your effort to fix it. Generally they can be removed from the engine w/o difficulty. A good cleaning is usually all th

- Re: my high oil pressure. Something still bothers me. It seems to me that a bypass valve isn't supposed to open all the time. No, that really is what it's supposed to do. Think of it as a "pressure r
