I have a pre 86 350 in my 91 rs. I am wanting to move my oil pressure switch/sender from above the oil filter to the port by the distributor. Will the oil plug by the distributor fit in the hole by the filter?

Also, the plug by the distributor needs a square socket. Anyone know what size it is?

No; that one is ¼" pipe IIRC.

Crescent wrench. (make sure it's not a metric one )

So they are both 1/4 then?

Not sure....

Can I give you my 1/8 of a dollar in exchange for your ¼ of a dollar? maybe even, a coupla thousand times?

I thought so.

The one on the rear chna wall is indeed 1/8, the one above the filter 1/4.

OK so the sensor by the filter won't fit in the port by the China wall?

The sensor won't fit the china walk without a T .

the reason i am asking this is because it is a pain in the butt to tighten. i figure if i moved it to the top it would be easier.

that or i was reading on here a little bit. would i be able to just completely remove the sensor and still have the stock fuel pump work?

Doesn't sound like your using the correct sender socket, plenty of room above the oil filter not so much behind the intake.

that only goes to 1 and 1/16. the "nut" part on mine is 1 and 3/16

I just grabbed a acdelco 25036940 out of my garage. Its fits the 1 1/16

thats not the same sensor as i have. mine is a lot longer.

mine looks similar to this, but mine doesnt have any black on it.

ok so here are a couple pics of what i have.

what the sensor looks like....



here is a close up of the threads, i am not able to turn it anymore. does it look like it is all the way in? it seems to be hitting the lip above the filter....

Its a pipe thread, a tapered thread. Remove it put some liquid Teflon or Rtv on the threads and tighten it down. It is hitting the block, you might need to goto the hardware store buy a short 1/4 npt straight piece and a 1/4 female street fitting.

ok cool. last time it ran ( 4 years ago) it dripped oil out of there. i managed to get 1/4 turn out of it the other day and played with it more today. i couldnt get it to turn anymore. so hopefully it wont leak anymore

If not making a piece to extend it out 2 inches will fix it and be under $10
