High Oil Pressure

JEEP WRANGLER

I have a 1998 Jeep Wrangler with a 2.5 liter engine. A week ago I had the oil changed with a full synthetic oil, which I've used previously. Since then, I've driven 500 miles to a different elevation (Moab, UT: OHV heaven.) During the oil change there were no leaks found of any kind.

The Jeep did have a little fun, but nothing crazy. It's been days since I've went off-roading and a week since my oil change. However, my oil pressure guage is now reading high at all times. It does not drop after the engine warms. Any ideas?

Thanks!

I know on a lot of jeeps the oil pressure switch is questionable.
