    Very simple.. Unplug, unscrew, screw new one in, plug it in. Fill the oil up.

      Re: No oil pressure, leaking everywhere.

      Update: Finally got the oil filter adapter on tuesday, it was about $37 from the dealer plus $3 for the gasket. The part is held in by 4 screws, all size 13. I had to remove the bracket that holds the a/c compressor in place, 3 screws that screw to the block, 3 that screw to the compressor. All in all, took about 4 hours to remove/install, though if i did it again i think i could do it in about 1-2 hours. Oddly enough though, my oil pressure is reading a lot higher than normal with the new sensor, around 70-100 PSI. A couple people have said the new sensor will eventually adjust itself or something... we'll see.

        Thats how it always goes, but yeah I think it will eventually seat itself into place and it'll get back to normal, My new sending unit is doing that (depends on the weather here too for me)
