      How did you break that changing your 02's? It needs to be replaced. You need to unscrew it from the 2 banjo type fittings (I think it is a 22mm if my memory serves me right) and then screw on the new one.

        I'm with Kevin...how did you break your oil pressure sending unit? Can you post a pic of what you've broken? Maybe its something else. The oil pressure sending unit is located on the back of the manifold it would be hard to break changing 02's.

          The sensor is 1 1/16". You can get a special deep well socket for it. A regular deep well socket is not deep enough. You might not need it if it's on the side of the motor. I don't know. (Note the note in the picture) Thanks for the picture Rob.

            He has a 94, and he mentions it being located near the filter. Possibly he has one of the "early" 94's that had the sending unit on the side of the block, above the filter like the 93's (reference the notes on Shoebox's picture).

            If he can't get the old piec out, he might be able to relocate it to the top of the block.

              yea injuneer its right above the filter.. i know its it because my oil pressure gauge reads 80 and if i have the car on and push the little button inside it drops accordingly to the pressure i put on it.... like i said i broke it off with the threads in it.. i know it plastic so worse comes to worse ill just crack the old one and pull it out piece by piece...
