Re: AE92 Oil Pressure a bit high

The relief valve where the oil filter is is just to allow oil through the oil cooler as well as the filter.
If you have the same engine and are using the same oil it is highly likely that the one with the higher oil pressure is less worn than the one with the lower pressure. When clearances in the bearings are smaller, the oil is harder to push through so the pressure is higher. Doesn't mean the other one is worn out though, just different clearances. If your oil pressure remains above the horizontal line, even when idling, then all should be OK.
