My grandpa's truck has a faulty oil pressure sensor. Soon as you turn the kew on it shoots up to 75psi. Found the oil presure sensor but dont have the right size socket to remove it. Does anybody know the right size and best place to get a new sensor. I think Geno's will have the best price at $89. His dodge is a 2001 w/cummins of course.

There is an outlet on the leftside of the engine about midway just above the oilpan. I still have sensor there for my old booster pump. the pump was designed to come on at 5 or 10 psi so not to overwhelm the VP as I remember. I think there is a plug there but dont remeber3282.attachThis is apicture of the where I had it connected.

Dripley do you remember where you bought that sensor?

 

I want to use that to activate my lift pump relay and no longer rely on the ECM.

It came from BD Diesel with the booster pump I got from them many years ago. The pump was a Carter so I would think the switch was an off the shelf item also.

Thanks a lot Dripley  Happy New Year too..... Hope you get lots of chicken houses to build this year

Same to you JAG1. Bojangles came to us and wants us to bid there work also based on our reputation. So maybe a new kind of retaraunt but the same meat. Cluck! Cluck!

Congrats on the BoJangles deal. I hope it all goes well
