My digidash 'gauge' is often showing full pressure, especially when revving or cold.

i found that the needles need repositioning. on my old gte, when u turn the ignition, it never used to go to the zero line, it would be slightly above giving higher pressure.

I might just be talkin poo though lol

Yes thats normal

As for the other guy, does the gauge work right? It will sit off the scale if you dont have the right sender fitted/connected.
