56152, Help! FAST! Star oil feed question
Posted by Cereal5, Sep-12-03 10:39 AM
Ok, I have that silver piece that's supposed to go to the oil feed. What size socket do you use to pull out the "oil pressure switch"? Is the star it and the hrc kit the same in this regard? The diagram on the star kit instructions is too dark to read, and i think the piece used with the hrc kit is completely different. HELP!!! It's the onlyt think holding me up!

1 1/16" deep socket I believe. Any autopart store shoudl carry it. It is call a Oil pressure socket. about 3-5 dollars.

1&1/16 deep socket MAY work, but most of the time just barely doesn't.

You need a 1 & 1/16 "oil pressure sensor/sender socket". It will usually be black, and in the special tools section of autozone or pepboys. It's 1/2" deeper than your standard deep socket.
