I have a Misto oil sprayer that I love, as it lets me spray a fine
mist of olive oil on my food. Lately, it seems only to spray a think,
solid line of oil, which is not what I want. I know the pressure is
pumped up and all. Is there an easy solution to get it back to
original condition? Thanks!

Here's a troubleshooting guide from Misto.

I gave up on using mine for oil - it kept turning rancid -
even after thorough cleanings-
it now holds lemon juice, I keep it in the fridge and spray stuff I
don't want to turn brown e.g. apples.
