So I suddenly lost all oil pressure doing 70 on the freeway.
After pulling of at next exit I find that the tube to the pressure sensor has broken off and let all oil spray out (no oil left in the engine). At the moment I have to find a way to get the remaining piece of pipe out of the engine block, without dropping brass chips in the block. I could then get another brass tube and reinstate it. However, it might be better to come with a way where the oil tube is not also responsible for keeping the sensor in place. I’m thinking of making a short hose of some kind and creating a mounting bracket to the sensor somehow. Would you be so kind to show me your solution?  |
