Alright. I replaced the front gasket ( the crank seal was fine), oil pan gasket, v\c gaskets,oil filter housing gasket and its still pouring out oil. The only other thing I can think of is the oil pressure sensor. Do you guys have any ideas?

either the oil level sensor or the oil pressure sender could be leaking. teflon tape on the threads helps.

Where is the oil pressure sender in referance to the sensor?
06-16-2011
on the oil filter neck going to the block. you'll see it.

I thought that was the sensor lol. Where's the sensor than?

The oil pressure sensor is in the oil filter adapter housing. The oil level sensor is the big sensor that is screwed into the front edge of the oil pan.
Did you replace the valve cover grommets when you did the V/C gaskets? Could be leaking from there still.
Where exactly is it "pouring" oil from?

So I just found out today that my oil pressure sensor is also leaking (left a nice oil puddle outside my house). I replaced it with a local brand back in January, now it's busted again.
What brands do you recommend? I was planning on either getting the Autozone brand or the one at the dealer.

Here's you're solution. Comes w/ the sender. Just get yourself a 2 or 3 hole gauge pod for the pillar and wire it up. No chance of having oil inside the car either. I run this one in my GT and it works just fine.
