My temp’s usually 20 degrees warmer than coolant. Pressure under 40, warmed up. Only time it hits 50-52 is when first running, or after an oil change. If your oils running hot, I’d imagine it would also be running thin. Pressure would be lower, not higher. If blow by tubes blocked it will run higher pressures. Both scenarios will cause a lot of oil seepage from everywhere. Not saying that’s the problem. Don’t know. Never heard of an oil cooler getting plugged up. Usually just gets a pinhole from coolant corrosion. If you ever change it, be sure to remove the whole housing and replace the o-rings that seal it to the block. Maybe just a gauge or wiring problem. Let us know either way. Always trying to learn.

General rule for anything if oil hits 250 degrees you're damaging the oil.
I'd be verifying the accuracy of that gauge before doing anything else.Big Road Skateboard, blairandgretchen and Dpeterson3530 Thank this. -
