Default Oil pressure sender removal made easy!!! Here is the tool

OK folks here is the tools that makes this simple. A 19mm Crowfoot wrench. Use this with a 3/8" universal, extension and socket wrench and the removal is simple.

Jack up the car, put in a jackstand, remove rear right wheel, slide the crows foot wrench in from the bottom, you need the universal to get the wrench on due to the angles around the spark plug shield. A little twist on the socket wrench and it loosens right up. the just spin it out from the top, spin the new one on and tighten it down with the crowfoot. Really easy and fast.

Got the crowfoot at NAPA, here is a link

Probably available from other sources. Made the job incredibly easy.

I didn't know this tool existed. I wish you would have posted four days ago! But this will help a bunch of others out in the future.

Crow's foot is a 'standard' item in the complete tool box - question is: is it a very flat version or will a standard crow's foot work???

The one from NPAP is a standard crow's foot. It still fits on the hex head on the bottom of the Oil Pressure Sender which is pretty wide/thick.
