Default Problem--- oil pressure 129PSI ???

thats what the dash tells me oil pressure 129psi. I checked the level and the level was fine the temp never got too high, maybe they used the wrong type of oil on the last oil change???

any advice would be awsome..... thanks,

jeff.

and get the correct socket for the oil pressure sending unit, they sell them at most auto parts stores... those senders are fragile....
