Torque specs for oil sensor switch/sending unit
I have a 2001 F-150 XLT 5.4 L Triton V8 4X4. I have oil leaking what appears to be around the oil sending unit. It is located next to the oil filter, which is near the drivers side front tire. I found the right deep well socket (21mm) to remove the switch. Hopefully I can get a ratchet in there to get a hold of it to remove it. It looks awfully tight. Does anyone know the torque setting when I install the new switch? And is the thread lock that's already on the new switches threads enough to keep it from leaking, or should I wrap some additional teflon tape around the threads? Thanks, Goose
