How to remove this?

[bmatthew96]

Hi guys. Just bought and SI and am very excited. It had a turbo in it that im trying to remove and has a oil line (don't know if its a return line or not) that goes into the block. Looks like there is a sensor there two. I don't know what its is. If any of you have an idea let me know. I was thinking unscrew it before the sensor and put a screw in. What do you think? What is that sensor? Thanks guys haha

Oil feed comes from the block, oil return goes into the oil pan. The pic you posted looks to be the oil pressure probably feeding your turbo.

oil pressure sending unit


remove sending unit, last couple I used a small cresent wrench, then remove line

why are you removing the turbo setup

I want to convert it back to stock and the turbo is really old. might turbo in future but don't care to right now, I just want it running right and healthy. Anyways, so are you saying I remove the oil line from sensor, remove sensor from block, and then put a bolt into the block?

Remove the feed line and put the sensor back in. The sensor belongs there, not the turbo feed.

Yup. You need that.

Im a little confused, do I thread the sensor out of that coupling that holds the oil feed line and sensor, and then take the coupling out of the block and thread the sensor directly into the block or do I unscrew the oil line, with the sensor and coupling still in the block, and just put a screw in there (where the oil feed line was) to stop her from leaking?

Before you revert it back to stock, what're the mods done to it?
Is there an aftermarket ECU? Injectors? How big is the exhuast?

yes there is probably a T fitting installed, you must remove the sensor from the T then remove the T from the block and install the sensor into the block. the sensor is just a dummy oil pressure light which you really dont need if you just want to plug the hole
