There are two sensor on the back of the block I need to know which is the one on the rear driver side, mine was just hanging there partially snapped in half.
I think it's the oil pressure sender, but I'm not sure.

That would be the oil pressure sending unit..price 85.69 from the dealership...and by the way if you go to NAPA for this part, their book shows a totally differnet one for our cars. its only $3, but the thread size is way wrong( I just dealt with that same sensor yesterday after work)

ha! f'in stealership! i got an autometer oil pressure gauge AND sender for $53! once you have a gauge the stock oil pressure sender is pretty useless IMO.

Napa has it for 38 bucks... pain in the ass to find though, everyone's computers seem to show a totally different oil pressure sensor.. if you need the napa part number just holla at me on aol or email.. aim: rawdawgstv.....email: ibplaynuall@hotmail.com.. later
