83 Datsun 280zx L28 Engine - Oil Pressure Sending Unit Removal
 
Hey everyone!
So I have a new oil pressure sending unit for my L28 (non turbo) 1983 Datsun 280zx.

I've been trying to turn that thing by hand (gloves with grip) and its just a painful and slow task.

Is there any EASIER way to remove that sending unit? either above or below the engine?

Yes. You use a wrench... :D

14mm or 12mm (cant remember) and just put it on and turn. maybe take the oil filter off for more room? they arent all that tight either
