Oil pressure really high?
My oil pressure is sitting at around 70 just idling cold. My grandpa says the classic " oh its nothing to worry about" but i know its wrong.... Ive seen other people posting about oil pressure. So what is wrong? i just had a headgasket done by a great mech. I wanna fix this if it is a problem...

When mine went bad it was pegged at 70 no matter what. Its a cheap and easy sensor to do, no special socket need just need a deep socket to do it.
