SENSOR BY OIL FILL...

My sensor on top of the engine by the oil fill neck is leaking oil through the two wires extending out the end. Which sensor is this. Oil temp? Press? I looked up numerous sensors online and none look like this one. I need to swap it out for new to fix the oil leak. Thanks guys.

That the sensor for your tach. I believe you can only get that one at IH or Ford, when I replaced mine it was about 80 dollars.

Boggs is right, that is your tach sensor. It is a dealer only part. Shop around though, I got dealer prices as high as 92 bucks, and ended getting one at a dealer in Madera CA. for 51 dollars.
