Replacement of Oil Pressure Unit

[Plimbob]

Are you talking about the sensor? Did you replace the sensor or did you have someone do it?

Scott, yes it was the oil pressure sending unit. I changed it but it was a real pisser to get to and as others have said in this thread you have to do it almost by feel because of the limited access. It took em about 35-40 minutes but as stated you have to be patient.

The garage where I take mine to for things I can't/won't work on gave me a bid of $275.00 because they claimed they had to take the manifold plenum off.

That's good to know. I will put my patience hat on and give it a try this weekend. Hopefully this is the part....

Let me know how this goes. I'm going to try and tackle this next weekend. Maybe the New Driver side valve cover as well, if I can find he part number on here.

Just tried for two hours to get that f$&king sensor off. Impossible with big hands. I removed the fuel line and pcv line still no luck! Off to a shop tomorrow.

I'm going to be replacing mine e soon. Does anyone know if the 02's have the screen or filter that needs to be replaced at the same time or is that for the newer models?

I just changed mine a couple of weeks ago...didn't have to take off the intake, fuel rails or any hoses. It's all by feel and it takes shit ton of patience. I wasn't about to pay anybody $400 to do it. The Chevy dealership wanted $700!!!
