Oil shooting everywere

89/xj/4.0/auto. Why would a cold air intake make my oil pressure redline and make oil shoot out of everywere??? As soon as I put my stock airbox back on my oil pressure went back to normal and no more leaking.

a cold ait intake has nothing to do with your oil pressure...where is the oil coming from?? the blowby tubes?

Did you plug off the breathers ? If so that would explain oil every where

No it came with a new tube with connectors on it for the breathers. The cold air definitly causes the leaks cuz I ran it for a week with the cold air and oil pissing everywere and ran it for 4 days with the airbox back on the oil leak is completly gone.
