Where is the oil pressure switch/sending unit located on an 89 f150 with the 302 efi.

Thanks

 

Just in front of the oil filter in the block, single wire pushed on over a stud on the sender.

 

i did'nt see it there but i did see one on top of block by fire wall. is that it..

 

The one on the back is a knock sensor. There's only one location for oil pressure.

This is your oil press sender. Ignore the oil cooler next to it.

 

It's in the same place on my '95. With all of the accessories bolted on the front of the engine, it can be a little hard to see. I was going to try to replace it by standing by the left front fender, like when you change the oil filter. But, I think it'll be easier to access from underneath. EDIT: I was wrong. You can't even see it from underneath. Easier access by leaning over the driver's side front fender (like changing an oil filter).

 

There is a special socket you can buy/rent.

 

 

I was not able to rent/borrow one from my local Auto Zone. It's wasn't part of their 'loaner' inventory. I have one if the OP needs it.

 

Somebody recently bumped a thread mentioning it as being 1-1/16.

I had a spare but can't lay hands on it to check. Think you have to use a 12 point.

 

The original post is from 9 years ago but it’s the thought that counts.

 

Thought we were all trying to help 99regal

 

You're guess is as good as mine. 99regal99 didn’t appear to have a question.

 

99regal99 was going off Conanski's answer, to where it was/is

 

Man that is a pretty thing! I can almost smell the paint. I am glad this old thread got dragged out just to see this pic!

 

Shoot, not paying attention...
