Oil pressure is higher after oil change
Changed out the Mobil 1 5w-30 for Redline 5w-30. Also changed from a larger filter (what you’d use on a Nissan v8) to OEM size Fram oil filter. Oil pressure at 180° used to be ~35 psi but now I’m seeing 40-45psi. Could this be that Redline thins out less as it heats up, causing the higher pressure reading? Did I get an unusually restrictive filter? This is probably nothing to worry about, but hey figured I’d ask around.
FYI, my pressure sensor is located pre oil cooler AND pre oil filter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
