Do i just need to replace the whole sensor thats in the pan, or is this the plug in part letting it leak? its not coming from where it screws in, its coming out of the sensor itself.

 

Hey, any luck on what happened here?

When doing a mac header install this past weekend, i noticed the same thing happening on my 95 Z-28

So far this is the only thread I could find, but i'll keep searching.

thanks!

Jeff
