Default Replacing oil pressure switch or sensor?

I had an oil pressure switch leaking oil at the back of my engine (1990 L98) driver's side under the distributor. I was having a terrible time trying to get it out to replace. It seems that no 1 1/16" deep socket that I could find would fit and a large open end wrench was not working. Found a special oil pressure switch socket made by Lisle at O'Reilly auto parts. (Lisle P.N. 13250) Made the replacement of the switch and sensor a 5 minute job. Just a little info to make things easier. :hurray:

:cool: I was going to suggest a Crow's Foot. They're expensive, but they make every job easier.
