I finally replaced my oil pressure sending unit. I had noticed that it was leaving a few drops of oil here and there so I immediately jumped to the conclusion that it was the dreaded intake oil leak
. Well I took my sending unit off and noticed that it was cracked all the way around the plastic/metal junction and dripping oil. There was my oil leak
Thanks to shoebox for his picture of the sending unit location. It took me less than a 1/2 hour to change it. The 1 1/16" socket was definately needed for this job as well as a 3" extension. It was nowhere near the p.i.t.a. that I thought it would be. I just had to feel around a little and I found it. After that it was butter.
