oil pressure switch

Trying to replace the oil pressure switch but can not seem to get it out. Is there a special tool that I need to use? I have a 95 F-150 5.0. thanks for the help.

Some parts stores have a socket you can rent/use to remove it.

an inch and 1/16 deep well socket should do the trick or it did on mine at least

So where is the switch located? I don't see it where m Haynes manual shows it to be. (In front of oil filter)

I purchased a 1 1/16 TRW part number 71277 socket at the auto parts store. Other brands are available. It works great.
