About a month ago I took my car out and drove around with some friends. I hadnt driven the car in awhile and noticed that my oil pressure gauge was reading very low. On the highways it would pick up but on the city streets where I was going slower it dropped down. I replaced the oil pressure sending unit and now its reading very high. What do you suggest? Thanks

Put a mechanical guage on it and make sure you have good pressure, then you will know what pressure you have with your electric guage reading
