I have a 94XLT 4.0 2WD. Yesterday I noticed my oil pressure was maxed smelled burning oil so I looked under the hood to inspect. I noticed that the high pressure actually popped the PCV valve out of the valve cover. Replaced the PCV valve with a new one. I also recently changed the oil (5W-30) and filter (Fram) so I thought I might have a bad relief valve in the filter. Replaced the filter with a Purolator. Truck still has high oil pressure and will pop the PCV valve out if I get on the gas.
I'm guessing the oil pump, sending unit, or a clogged oil port inside somewhere. The engine is not dirty and covered in sludge but I guess I"ll run some B-12 or Motor Flush in the oil for a while and see if it dislodges anything.
Anyone have any ideas or run into a similar problem with high oil pressure?
