You're not being yelled out man, no worries.

Oil pressure high, fine, low oil pressure bad. I don't know how you got 80psi, but just keep an eye on it.
Have you checked it out since all of this happened, have you started it or anything?


Peace,
Craig.

Search is your friend!

Good luck trying to narrow it down. I hope you figure it out, and let us know what your cars problem was so you can help others.


Peace,
