OIL PRESSURE SENDING UNIT SNAPPED!!!! HELP
hey, I was trying to take off my oil pressure sending unit and in the process the tube that goes into the block snapped right at the base. Any suggestions on the easiest way to get it out.
Thanks.
Joe

Fill the hole with a thick grease. It'll catch any chips.
Oh... and before you try, heat that sucker up and then some pb or kroil and let rest overnight, then hit it with some more heat next day and then the ezout.
