Weird oil pressure readings
Hey guys need some help here if someone can help me out.
I recently changed my oil pan due to some oil leak I had and a dent it had on it.
Changing the oil pan some issues showed on my ecu logging now.
First of all i had my pressure sensor hooked up on the line out from the engine before the oil cooler and it was reading good at cruising speeds around 50-80 psi depending on engine speed, during WOT i was seing pressures rising at 150 psi droping down to 70 psi rising up again, changed my sensor location and installed it on my oil pedestal which changed to 120 psi and droping to 70 psi up and down.
i dont know what this issue is now im really confused.
One thing im considering is that my oil pressure is to high forcing my relief valve opening and closing.
I even seen my oil pressure droping to 6 psi on decelaration.
Did anyone have this issue before?
