im waitin on my gauges to get here but i was lookin at the buried oil pressure sender. its there any tricks to get it out. i know there is a nut twords the block but it seems the oil filter and p/s are in the way of a wrench...doesnt look fun. and the water temp looks to be in there pretty good but i think i can get it.

thanx

for real? is your hex tube rotated or something? you cant use the world's longest box end on it, but you can use a fairly long one. probably only gonna need a 1/4 to 1/2 turn with the wrench to get it loose enough to do by hand.

i used an extension on the socket for the temp sender (lower intake, near the dizzy). it came right out.

good luck.

I pulled my filter, and changed oil while I took off the stock sender and extension tube on mine. It was pretty easy to reach from the top with a regular open ended wrench.
