I have a 1993 YJ Jeep Wrangler 2.5L. The oil pressure gauge would read at extreme pressure readings. I replaced the oil pressure sensor and the same problem is happening. What could this be?

First you need to check your oil pressure with a mechanical gage. Harbor frieght tools has them at an ok price and the quality is ok too. Made by U.S. General I believe. If your oil pressure checks out to be truly high, then your probably looking at a new oil pump (the oil pressure regulator is part of the pump).
