You'll only loose a few drops. I do suggest getting this sensor from the dealer. Redesigned set points and reliable. The aftermarket ones are inconsistent and can give false warnings.

While I'm there I'm also going to replace the #2/4 header. If that goes smoothly, I've also got a new water pump along with all new coolant pipes/gaskets and hoses (its basically the last bits of my complete cooling system overhaul!) Anyways, I figured while I'm there doing all this I minus well toss in a new high pressure oil sender (the grey one, .9 bar). What I'm wondering is, is it possible to do this without loosing too much oil? I JUST changed the oil out to some really expensive Redline synthetic stuff, would hate to waste any of it... Also, anything else I should address while I'm back there? Kevin |
