Skinny top facing up?

what ever side fits snug into the o ring goes down, provided theres a o ring in the bottom of the hole in your car.

No o ring at bottom but one at top. uploading pic
AutoZone has oil pressure sending sockets so I won't need those channel pliers

Funny thing on AutoZone website it shows another part number but at their store they said the part I have is correct
I can't remember, I just put it on as it came out.

dont waste your money on that tool. use the pliers, hell vice grips work. theres no room for a socket or a wrench really. pliers are a billboost approved method too.

the socket will fit. it fits over the sensor. I tried it on my new part
Re: Pics..Help me find cause of oil leak.leaking on side of passenger tire behind eng
no kidding, now get it on the car. the axles in the way, and so is the sway bar when it comes time to turn a open end wrench. pliers are the easy way.
dont you trust me at this point?????:th_nervous:

Here is the video
crying noise after changing pcv
I took the pcv valve out and put it back it, its in there correctly. i think I may have the wrong part. It said 2191 on it but from what i remember it was shorter then the original one. I put the pcv in with the larger round side down
Ok figured it out. correct part but somehow I didn't put the black rubber gasket back on the pcv. when I was out the junkyard I saw it so I just took one off from the junkyard and out the gasket on mine and now the crying went away and air sucking through dipstick hole
Also I got a MAF from the junkyard actually 4 of them for free. Cleaned it up and installed it so the light should be going off soon for good

Yes i Do! thanks scottty and everyone else. maf fron junkyard fixed it. my car ****s aa lot better alot now no slipping.
Fun to drive now
Maf does affect shifting
Re: Pics..Help me find cause of oil leak.leaking on side of passenger tire behind eng
bad maf can cause all sorts off issues form nothing you notice to bad idle, stalling, poor shifts. yup they blow.
good to hear its better now.
Re: Pics..Help me find cause of oil leak.leaking on side of passenger tire behind eng
Scotty it's running like a champ fast firm shifts. Fun to drive now thanks to you alll. I made another thread about the slipping of trans few months ago.Shops was saying trans bad or need to be rebuilt.. lol my girl and I are happy..
Never new the Maf would cause slipping of trans but it makes sense now as Maf control engine load etc...
Fix it for free since I got 3 Maf for free. well I paid for Maf cleaner and bought a new air filter and pcv. so I spent maybe $30
Beat a 2001 mustang at take off. they followed me and asked what I did to my car and I told them stock lol. I got them at take off.

Transsmission thread
http://www.grandprixforums.net/threa...51#post1200651
the fix was the MAF for anybody that looks up this thread
Still got to fix the oil sensor but I'll wait for that next week when I got time but only $10 part
Re: Pics..Help me find cause of oil leak.leaking on side of passenger tire behind eng
kinda funny thing is you might not have til next week...... if its leaking now, its gonna blow soon. SO much easier to take it out go to the hardware store get a plug and put the plug in and go about your life WORRY free. OR save money for a engine replacement if it blows out

yea really I was lucky or whatever been driving the car without no oil for 1 week last month and it's been good still riding smooth. and when I say no oil I mean none like less them a quart. I notice it didn't have oil but I thought to myself in just changed the oil 2 weeks ago can't be and kept driving it for a week.
but I don't think it's going to blow the sensor if it does I will change it but I will monitor the oil daily. I might change the sensor tommorow if I have time
wifey said she don't want a plug because she wants to know when something is wrong and want to see the light ...😏😏?????
Re: Pics..Help me find cause of oil leak.leaking on side of passenger tire behind eng
Ok Scotty so to change the sensor I take off the tire, turn wheel to the left.
now will pliers or vice grips work or will I need those special pliers?
