The braake booster hose must have been on the wrong side of the oil pressure sensor <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" />
It broke off cleanly at the base where the plastic meets the metal <img border="0" alt="[guns]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" />
Can I run it this way until I get another sensor <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />
Anyone break it too & was able to use your car <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Depending on where it broke, you will most likely be OK. When Justin (Jsears8) and I installed his LS6 intake back in the summer, we broke his off as well. He drove the car around for a few days before fixing it. We even dynoed the car the next day w/ the oil pressure gauge reading 0 psi.

I too may have to ride around with the busted
sensor, as NO one has any in stock <img border="0" alt="[fight]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_punch.gif" />
If it doesn't leak, ok.
Hate to pull the intake again & again <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />
