^^^^^^^I cannot get at a good angle to measure mine, and I don't have a wrench big enough. So before I go to the store and spend 50$ trying to find which wrench will work, does anyone know the size of the bolt off of the top of their head?

I don't have a KA FSM, or a PDF reader on this PC (Public Library, weird I know) or I'd check the FSM.

I just need to remove mine and replace it with a new autometer unit, but will not have it up on jackstands until this weekend and would like to have the materials in advance, thanks.

It is either 24mm, 25mm, or 1" depending on whether it is factory, napa, or cheap. There is a oil pressure sender socket at napa you can borrow.

Hey, thanks a lot.I lack a lot of bigger standard wrenches (I have metric galore), so I borrowed a few standard wrenches from a friend last night, and the 1" was one of them.

On a side note, in case the wrench starts rounding it off, is this oil pressure sender socket just a deep well or is it slightly longer?

We don't have that glorious O'Reilly's in Michigan.

The socket is a specialty tool designed to fit on the oil pressure sender. It has a special contour to it fits almost any 25mm or 1" oil pressure sender.
