Oil pressure?
What would cause the oil pressure to climb? I installed an engine in a 1998 e-350 and everything seems ok but the oil pressure gauge after running for about 5 minutes starts to rise. It takes a while but it will end up at the max reading on the gauge.
Will what ever is going on cause any damage?

no. I could see if the gauge spiked high or something but you could set your watch to it. It is so consistent. If you let it sit for a while it goes down and then when you start it back up everthing is good for about 5 minutes and then it starts its climb.
Remember I just changed the engine and haven't even droven it yet. Could that be something that needs to bleed out?

I learned almost all of the abrevations but that is a new one. What does EOP stand for and where is it on a 1998 e-350. Engine Oil Pressure?

RE:Remove the EOP connector to see if the gauge goes to zero. If not something is sending the PCM voltages indicating EOP. Something may be crossed up.
EDIT: I mean the EOP connector. Corrected.

Yes, engine oil pressure. The low pressure EOP is on top of the High Pressure Oil Pump (HPOP) reservoir.
