Jeep Oil Pressure - Too high?
Drove my son's Jeep Cherokee (99 2WD 4.0L straight six) yesterday for the first time in a while. I noticed the oil pressure guage showed almost max pressure (80psi, and only drops slightly at idle). We changed the oil/filter and no difference. It is not over filled. Perhaps it's always read high and I just didn't notice, or maybe a guage out of calibration.
It runs great in every regard even with 166k on the clock. He'll be taking it to college in a few weeks (5 hours away). Any reason for concern? Anything I should check?
