buy the socket and get err done...or see it they will rent you the socket...I have a drawer full of specialty sockets and bezel sockets...specialized stuff big...

$25-50 bucks for the Special socket

problem is all my tools are in Colorado and I will need more than a socket to do the job

otherwise , I would do it

On my 2011 coupe, I had to disconnect the Pwr/Str/Pmp suction hose at the Rsv., which meant draining the PSTR oil Rsv. It needed to be changed anyway.
The Pwr/Str/Pmp pressure line must be disconnected from the pump. It has an 18MM wrench size fitting. But you will need an 18MM Crowsfoot Flarenut 3/8" drive. I could not find that size in MM so I bought a harbor freight 7PC set of SAE Crowsfoot, the 3/4" is just a little too big and the 11/16" has to be hammered on with a long drift. I was able to get the 11/16" on so I could loosen the fitting.
I also removed the clip that holds the A/C lines to the inner shock tower for more room to reach the sensor.

You will need the special Oil Pres. Swt. socket that costs $15. but you can use a 1 1/16" deep socket also.
When using the 1 1/16" deep socket to install the sensor I put some paper towels inside the deep socket so the sensor did not go into the socket too deep. it needs to have the threads sticking out so you can screw the sensor into the oil filter housing.
The special oil Pres. Swt Socket has a ridge to hold the switch from going deep into the socket.

Be careful when tightening the sensor, it has an O ring fitting. so I put some blue lock-tite on the threads and tightened the sensor to 15 Ft Lbs. (that is not very much when using 1/2" drive ratchet)

Don't forget to fill the Pwr/Str/Rsv.

Trade it in on Toyota or Lexus built in Japan and you can retire those wrenches.

some peeps wer finding air pumps off of vw's smog system and useing those for a super charger @ about 4500 rpm the stock flywheel would self distruct and fly apart (several got hurt bad mostly lower leg injurys),when those came apart!

I've got a '87 buick regal WE-1 model that is a 3.8 turbo V-6 with methanol injection...that bitch will put you firmly into the plush velour seats and keep you there...I can drive it like an old lady and slay most cars at a traffic light...almost a sleeper like my 409 4 speed '61 wagon...people do a double take when they see the hurst T handle in front of the bench seat...had a visitor this morning, stopped by and dosed my with GT shrooms...chewed up a half gram for a little excitement...a good friend gifted me a handful a while ago and I was a piggie and gobbled them up, 1/2 gram at a time...I like being tweaked but not seeing God...

Ah the Buick. Yeah when they came out I think they only put out like 150HP. Glad you've tinkered and succeeded. I haven't been able to find shrooms in like 15 years. Hope you have a great day friend. 👍 Do a good pull on the Buick for me
