Oil Sender Leak
« on: October 26, 2020, 01:40:52 PM »
This is a big block oil sending unit typically 68/69.  This one has a leak and seems to be located at a side of the black band ?  Most likely at the green border rather than the metal edge.  Repairable ?  Thanks for any tips.  Brian

Given that they are relatively inexpensive and available I haven't heard of anyone attempting a fix on the crimp together design. West coast Cougar would be one source for another used one I would think.
