"....be sure you dont have 2 oil filter gaskets in the motor. if it started when you changed the oil id double check that...."
"...... Like was mentioned. If you have 2 gaskets on there, or if it actually blows the filter round, the pressure relief (metal) plunger is sticking closed, not regulating pressure......"
I'd also look for either a double gaskget, or a defective mounting surface.
Pull the filter and make sure there's not a gaskget stuck to the block (you wont be the first one this has happened to).
THe filter gaskget sits in a recess in the filter and they are almost impossible to blow out.
If you had a Hi oil pressure problem, it would most likely ballon the filter rather than blowing the gaskget out.
