Hey guys I'm pretty sure about this but I wanted to know if anyone can help me out by posting pistures of which sending unit the oil pressure one is? There is one right above the oil filter and then there is one right above that one which only has one wire and one prong insert. I bought an oil pressure sending unit from autozone the other day and the one with the single wire and single prong insert fit like a glove. Is this the oil pressure sending unit. I need this guys this has been driving me crazy. thanx in advance.

 

I changed mine not to long ago , I remember the sending unit by being the one that you can see with the hood open , you dont have to crawl under the car to see it .and I think im not sure , but i think its bigger than the other thing . ....hope this helps you bro . Wayne

 

Deimos , is this a 2.8 , or 3.1 ? ...mine is a 2.8 ...i dont know if carbed or mpfi would have anything to do with it , but mine is mpfi also

 

its an 88 2.8 wayne MPFI. so its the one thats bigger right?? what did u use to take this bad ***** out??? and thanks for the help man.

 

I used a cressint wrench i did a oil change too do i had more room to work with the oil filter off.
Call a Chevy Dealership get the part number and order it from www.GMPARTSDIRECT.Com its allot cheaper takes about 5 days to get

 

hmmm .I did not have /or need to remove my oilfilter for more room .Im not saying you didn't need to move it Fast Rs .Something seems different , cus mine was so easy to get to , even found the problem easy cus it was so easy to see .I worked from the top of my motor and didnt even have to crawl underneath the car .Hmmmm .What year is your car ? Is it a firebird or camaro ? You should really get you a chiltons repair manual if you plain on doing some smaller repairs like this .I have a haynes , and even though I dont like the haynes , its somewhat helpful .But , I heard chiltons is real good . Goodluck man , Wayne

 

my unit is above the oil filter . a little bit below the head of my block
