A 1953 super M has a high oil pressure, top number on the gauge. The oil is checked..both "petcocks" (spelling?) have oil coming out when loosened. radiator is good, engine sounds good but why high oil pressure? Temperature gauge is in the cold range also.

Any ideas on the high oil presure? Any ideas on the "bang" and then the knock-knock noise...the black exhaust?
