High Engine Oil Pressure?

Yahoo Message Number: 65770
I had my 2000 Allure out last weekend and noticed the engine oil pressure up between 75-100PSI. Should I be concerned if the pressure is near 100?

I've had similar symptoms for awhile (at least a year) and notice that the gauge pressure is consistently higher than that shown on my Featherlite (name?) monitor which is in the expected range. You didn't mention how long it reads at the extreme end of the scale, whether it starts back down to a more expected range and, if so, how long it takes to get there. Mine eventually approaches the engine monitor number but it takes a long time and hot weather.
