Is 96 PSI oil pressure too high?
A PSI over 80 is usually considered too high for the engine to properly be protected from damage. High oil pressure is an indicator that the oil is not able to properly pass through the bores and reach all parts of the engine effectively.
What PSI should my oil pressure be?
between 25 and 65 psi
Every engine and vehicle has its own specific ideal operating range when it comes to oil pressure, but it’s usually somewhere between 25 and 65 psi when the oil has been warmed up. High oil pressure, as the name suggests, is when an obstruction or other issue causes the pressure needed to move oil around to rise.
Is too much oil pressure bad?
When oil pressure exceeds a specified value, the valve opens, allowing oil to return to the sump or pump inlet. A stuck-closed pressure relief valve can raise oil pressure to dangerous levels. This extreme pressure can cause the oil filter to explode, resulting in engine oil loss.
