Oil pressure too high

Sep 18, 2003 3 Replies

Hi group.


95 Grand Cherokee I6 automatic 4WD

Oil pressure is usually around 40. Recently it jumps up to 80 and stays there until I stop and the engine is idling. What can cause this?



TIA.

A defective sender unit. That is the cheapest and easiest thing to fix anyway.

But before you buy a new sender, remove, clean, and replace the connector just incase rustbunnies got in there. ;)
