ajp Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 84 GL, was cleaning around the oil pump and the oil pressure sender wire (copper eye) that was hanging on by a thread broke off. The screw with the rubber washers above and wire connector below doesn't loosen or tighten, and that seems like the place oil is dripping from. Is that screw sppossed to do that? do I need to take off the whole sender unit? if so, how do you get a grip on it. haynes isn't telling me much on this. thanks. quick fix?

ivantruckman Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 that screw is just the electrical connection if there is oil leaking from there replace the sender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajp Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 I was hoping to take the screw out to replace the electrical connection, but it just spins. not sure how to get a grip on the sender unit, is there a special tool? Its not finger tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
