Default Regulator PSI question

I also have a question about CO2 Pressure. I just tapped my 2nd keg today, and I set the CO2 Pressure to the recomended 16 PSI for Coors Light. As soon as I turned my shut off valve on, the pressure gauge rose from 16 to 18 and it has stayed steady at 18. Is this normal? I do keep my CO2 cylinder inside of my kegerator and I wasn't for sure if that was affecting the readout that i'm getting? Could the actual pressure still be at 16 but the readout at 18 due to the cold air? I'm getting a beer temp of 38 degrees on my 2nd pour, but the beer is comming out very fast, and I just switched from a 5 ft beer line to a 7 ft beer line, ID 3/16. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!
