Hey everyone. I just changed my oil pressure sensor because of low oil pressure readings, and I am questioning my own eyes right now.
Can you look at these pictures down the hole and tell me if the little filter screen is still trapped down in there, or if it is already out?
I’m asking because I’ve been in there with several different picks. Sometimes I feel like there’s something there, but nothing‘s coming out. I take a picture and it looks like something is down there, but then I don't know. Maybe someone didn't put a new one in when they previously changed the sensor. I actually found another old oil pressure sensor sitting under the intake when I removed everything! They must’ve dropped it and couldn’t get it out.
Any second opinions help. Also, if it turns out the screen is still down there, what are your best suggestions for getting it out besides just using standard picks? Thanks!
