Oil Pressure Sending Unit

Anyone know the correct tool to tighten this down? my wrenches wont fit over it since the block gets in the way and i dont have a big or deep enough socket

I think I used a ace tool, If the sensor is off the car? bring it to a parts store or ace and just look for a socket that may work.

Good luck and hope this helped.

can you get it lose again since its not that tight? I'd try to do that and just bring it into the parts or local tool store.

I think I used a little bit of teflon tape to help seal mine.
