when piston rings are worn it allows the compression from the cylinders past the pistons down around the crank and into the oil pan. this increases the oil pressure. a surefire sign is if you push your oil dipstick all the way in and go around and step on the gas and walk back around to the dipstick and it's pushed out by any degree. this was the problem with my 87 non-turbo that i sold. another sign is low compression in your cylinders. but that could also be just a BHG. my last post i said that if your compression is out of spec it means a engine re-buil is neccassary. I wasn't completely accurate. it could mean just a doing a BHG job. If your piston rings are worn then you must get a engine re-build.
