Oil pressure spikes on decel - thoughts? Series of events:
Replaced knock sensors
Redid rotted PCV system
Developed huge oil leak
Added Lucas Oil leak stopper
Changed OPSU
Added breather to oil fill cap
Oil leak SEEMS to have stopped (will know more in the AM)
As you can see, there's more than one variable I changed but dang, the oil pressure is running higher on WOT, not crazy high, but it bumps 80 on downshift/decel situations. Could my PCV cause this?
Thoughts? Questions? Car runs strong and tight still.
Thanks!
