PROBLEM:
My revs on the highway are varying from 2250-2500. Doesn't seem like much variance but if im locked into a speed, it certainly feels like it. This surging only happens on the highway, so its probably engine speed related. Sometimes it feels like the engine might drop revs so much that it might stalll...but that never happened.
OTHER SYMPTOMS:
my cruise control doesnt always work. I can turn it on, but it will not set and lock into a speed. This started happening around the same time I noticed the engine rev problem a few months ago. It might work maybe 1 out of 20 trys. And when it does, the rev problem will kick in, and disable the cruise control.
Yesterday I noticed that my oil pressure gauge is really really high. On the highway its at 80psi, and at a red light its about at 45.
CURRENT STATE:
I havent done a spark plug/cap/rotor/wires change in about 2+ years. Removed a random plug a few weeks ago, and it looked in good condition, just maybe needing a re-gap.
Also just changed the oil. Castrol synthetic blend 10w30, and Purolator Pure One filter. This is the standard oil change usually.
TPS was also replaced 2 months ago, with no change in symptoms.
Does anyone have a thought as to what might be going on here?
