Incidentally, what exactly is the problem if the oil pressure is too high? Could it crack the crankcase if it was say 1.5x too high?
The oil cooler as the probably weakest part of lubrication system will blow. Or the hoses.

The indicator can be the the problem. Need to check this. I flew ca. 4 hours with the high indication. If the engine would not be properly lubricated...
