Remove the oil pressure sensor

Could someone tell me what size and length socket I need to buy to get the sensor out? I tried but I guess I need a super long one or something and I couldn't use a wrench cause theres no room. Thanks for any help.

it's a special socket, just ask at the store and tell them what you're doing. i think 1 1/16" will work, but then you're into 1/2" drive tools.

Same socket as the knock sensor, I think.

I'm not sure about it being the same as the knock sensor, but it might be the same one as you use for the O2 sensor.

OK, I bought a new sensor and the size is 1 1/16 but the parts guy didn't have a socket for it so I guess I can find one at a hardware store.
