I now have the answer (no thanks to this forum)
It could cause a high reading on the gauge.
A cause for high oil pressure could be related to the type of oil that is being used in the vehicle. Thicker based oils such as 10w40 and higher could cause high oil pressure.
Too much oil in an automotive engine can cause high oil pressure. High oil pressure could cause blown seals and gaskets allowing oil to leak out.
A worn out, tired, high mileage or abused engine could cause low oil pressure.
High or low oil pressure, too little oil.
It's located by the oil filter
I thought I had high oil pressure, When I would rev the engine the oil pressure would max out on the oil pressure guage. Luckily it just turned out to be loose connections to the oil pressure sensor. I tightened the terminals and the problem went away.
On the passenger side of the engine above the oil filter
check the oil level in the hpop.
Your gauge Could Be Reading Wrong, Sender Bad Ect. Other Things If Oil Pressure Is Bad. Oil Pump Bad, Cam Bearings Bad, Crankshaft And Rod Bearings Bad. Have Your Oil Pressure Tested By A Mechanic With A Pressure gauge To Get The True Pressure. It May Just Be A Bad Oil Pressure Sender. Also You Need To Use The Recommended Weight Of Oil. Best Place To Start Have Pressure Tested. Good Luck
Because high oil pressure is good...
Low oil pressure in itself will not cause the motor not start. Low oil pressure is a cause for concern as far as motor lubrication. Low oil pressure can cause lubrication failure and be harmful to all moving parts.
