I have watched several of these. What about tying a long piece of string to the oil pressure sensor and also to your flex adapter. Nothing wose than dropping the new part down in there somewhere lioosing your fkex drive or extension etc. You always take a razor knife to cut them loose after its safe to do so😮

I used a seat cushion from a travel trailer dinette seat. The black plastic cover is held on by one 8mm screw. It's a captive screw, so, it will not come completely out. It keeps you from losing it. Once removed, you pull the cover towards you to the front of the truck. It has two tabs that hold it at the back and the screw in the front top. Then I put the cushion over the intake manifold. I used a step stool and got myself pulled all the way towards the firewall and laid on it. You need to get as far as possible to be able to reach it easily. It's not bad this way. Laying across the engine. I cleaned as much dirt around the sensor as possible before removal. This way when installing the new one you don't get dirt in the open hole. The best tool for the long sensors like my 2001 3500 dually 8.1liter uses, is to spend the $47-$50 at Harbor Freight Tools and get their oxygen sensor tool kit. It has 2 sockets that fit the long GM sensors. It makes life so much easier. One socket is 1-1/16" and the other is 27mm which is pretty much the same exact size. The sockets like the one in this video won't work on the long sensor. The long sensor has only one wire pin connection it uses the engine block ground for the other connection. With that said, you don't want to use Teflon tape on the threads or you'll insulate the electrical connection and won't have continuity. It will be like the sensor isn't plugged in. The new sensor has some red pipe dope on the threads. I don't think it needs a crush washer, as I didn't have one on the old one and the new part didn't come with one. The threads appear to be tapered pipe threads and I think are metric threads.

It did for me because I upgraded to the z71 coils as well as 1/2" spacers. If you get the same coils and no spacers you will maintain the same ride height..

The problem with those "cold air intake" filter assembly's is that the filter is not sealed off from the hot air under the hood. It has to be sealed off completely to the cold ram air like the stock box is. It makes a big difference. On "LSXMATT" KZread site he shows how he built his to have the k&N filter and a intake tube but still have the filter box sealed to the ram cold air source so no hot air from under hood gets in.

Mine stopped working 3 years ago. I knew of this issue and I also I know I really DO have oil pressure from the lack of clacking. The reason I haven't replaced it is because ever since it stopped working, the active fuel management system doesn't engage (AMF) so I figured this has deleted that system which is what I want. Anyone else had this happen??
@mdzautomotive5 ай бұрын
You know its great that you discovered this and posted it because I also didnt want the AFM on my Tahoe to activate and bought a little device ($200+) that connects to the obd port to keep it from activating. To be honest as long as you know that you have proper oil pressure who cares if the sensor craps out..

@mdzautomotive Yeah, I was nervous about not replacing it at first but like I said, I've been running it like that for 3+ years. Made several trips from VA to FL pulling a camper. Never had any problems. I was wondering if maybe that screen being dirty prevents any oil from getting to the camshaft?
