[alfa] high oil pressure



Hi all,
excuse my ignorance but how (where) do you check oil pressure with a mechanical gauge. My 87 spider has always shown high oil pressure 57-80 psi. My mechanic thinks its a bad gauge or sender but (un)fortunately the gauge seems to function correctly. After my last oil change (castrol 20w50 + baldwin oil filter), the operating pressure went up to 100+ psi at 3000+ rpm (gasp). Thanks,

Ben
87 spider
