i tried to drill a hole in the center of what is left of the oil press sensor - this thing seems to be made of kryptonite ???

i also had to drill out some tin screws - will try to extract as many as i can.

I had my oil pressure sender to break about ten years ago. I was afraid to drill because I was afraid of metal shavings in the motor. So I got a good sheet metal screw with permagasket and plugged the hole. Not the idea thing to do but it worked for me.

find a small nut that fits right on top of the broken piece. weld up the center and now you will be able to back it out with a socket, john
