So the last few days I have noticed my oil pressure gauge is all most stuck to the 80 until the truck warms up. I also noticed after looking under the hood that my top radiator hose was flat, also until the truck seems to warm up. What's up? Thanks in advance

It is normal to have high oil pressure until the engine oil is warmed up because of the higher thicker cold oil.

The top hose being collapsed is caused by the sticky valve in the reservoir cap-- clean or replace it.
