Hey everyone,
I've got the oil pressure light coming on at idle - oil is full and clean and car has continued to run great... everything in my own knowledge, and everything I can find online about the subject points to a likely failed oil pressure sensor.
So, I've gotten the parts I need, got to work... pulled the fuel rails out tonight and 4 of the 6 injectors came out with the rails... I was really praying they all popped out with the rails
OF COURSE one of the two injectors that is stuck is the one directly blocking the oil pressure sensor. I've been wiggling it, gently prying at it, sprayed it up with penetrant right at the base where it goes into the head hoping it'll soak down... it wiggles a little bit, but seems really stuck in there. I decided to put everything down and walk away for a bit so Im not tempted to keep trying, just let it soak.
Anyone do this job, or just plain fought with a stuck DI injector before? This is my first time working on a DI injector, and Im pretty nervous about breaking it off in the head.
Any help is appreciated!
