oil pressure sending unit accessable with intake on? i cant get the special socket to tighten up the sending unit until tomorrow, but i wanna go ahead and put everything back together tongiht if possible. will i be able to get to the sending unit with the intake on and everything buttoned up? also is it ok to start the car and make sure there are no problems with the unit screwed in as far as it can go by hand? it only lacks a few turns.

well is it accesible with the intake on? i really wanna put everything back together so all i have to do tomorrow is get the socket and behind the intake manifold and tighten it up. i cant get any of my wrenches down in there or id tighten it up now.
Its a bitch to get to with the intake on. If you want to get it done tonight just pull the intake back off and tighten it with a wrench. It should only take like an hour to pull the intake off, tighten the sender, and put the intake back on. All ya gotta do is take the 10 intake bolts off, leave the fuel rail and lines connected.
Why did you put the intake back on without tightening it anyway??
