ah, another question.

So, i checked out another celica, 86 gts.

The oil pressure meter needle was always at high when i test drove it. It's been garage stored for 4 years. Can this turn into a big problem? Easily fixed or not?

Really new at cars - But would really like a 4th gen celica. :o

Thanks. Toyota Nation's been heaps of helps with questions.

Unless you hook up a mechanical gage to the engine oil supply, you are only guessing.

The gage could be unhooked, the sending unit could be broken, or the pressure could just be high simply because the engine oil was cold or the owner used a heavier grade of oil.
