My Oil sending unit is leaking Oil

Pull the wire that is in the middle(top portion) of it. Remove with a deep socket. Install in reverse order.
Oh ok have you done this before? It"s not as easy as your making it sound. Are you aware of how difficult it is to get a Socket on this thing? You can burn your hand trying to do so until its cool.

Forgot to mention I replaced mine during my oil change while the oil filter was removed. Lots of space without the oil filter in the way.

Removing the Oil filter thanks man for letting me know ill try and give that a shot. Were you able to gain access to it right away with the socket and all? How long did it take to remove and replace?

I think I may have the same issue, when you say "Reverse order", do you just mean take it off and put it back together??

Yes, put the new unit in with the deep socket and plug the wire back in.

You forgot to mention to put Anti Seize on the Oil sending unit threads so that it doesn"t rust up and it stays protected better

I couldn't remember if the one I got had some coating on it or not.
Did you end up replacing yours?
