Oil Pressure through the roof?

I have a 90 gtu coupe

and just recently i swapped the omp to get rid of limp mode and a couple days later

like 4 days my oil pressure steadily rose over 60

and just yesterday it hit 110 and now its even past that like 150!!!!

wat could be the problem how can i fix this and get it back to normal

^^^^^hahahaha try another sending unit or clean the contacts on the one you have. I'm sure there are many out there you can buy or borrow. Good luck.

actually I have a few in the garage somewhere if you want to try.........

Maybe it just cleared a clog in a line. This is good news if it was 110 before. You're good to go now.
