oil pump
i appreciate everyones responses and i should know soon i have no garage to work in or i would do all the work myself like i always do but i think this time i will take advantage of having an extended warrenty and have it done in a shop.been busy at work so i am trying to get it over to the dealership by monday morning kinda need it back A.S.A.P. it is my daily driver been catching a ride in to my brother-in-laws work and then walking the 5 miles to my job every day since tuesday.
hmm...i know they make sockets...i have one...but you cant get it over the whole unit with the cowl there....and the bottom of it faces toward the firewall...like i said id like to see this done...im not saying you havent or anything, but post a vid of it.....because i cant see it being done without the manifold being taken out.....

Obviously you don't know which it is at this time, so I'd say to get that sending unit swapped out ASAP and go from there....
