Default Oil Pressure Sending Unit

I just called the chevy dealer to get a price on the oil pressure sending unit. The parts counter guy asked whether I needed a 2-way or 3-way unit...

Does anyone know which type my 1998 C5 needs?

Thanks!

I would never use that dealership..... a simple Vin# check gives you the right part.

The part looks like this.... the part number in the photo has been superseded. use it as a reference.

Contact Gene Culley at Fred Beans, a supporting forum vendor, have your Vin # handy. He has the best online prices and service.

Fred got me for about 20 something I think. The only reason I am not sure is cuz I also ordered the coolant pipe and plugs and shipping included as well for 71. I will check when it comes in.
