Thanks for all the suggestions on the high readings.

I checked the grounding of the pressure transducers and they checked out ok.
The lines to the guages are also in order.

The high oil pressure I can certainly understand due to the cold weather.
I guess the new question is why is the fuel pressure going 2 to 3 psi over 
red line
as the fixed pitch prop comes up to cruise RPM?

I'll let you folks know when I get it figured out.

John,
Do you have a door at the back of the oil cooler you can close, and if so,
did you have it closed?  Some have such a door, some don't.
