Here's the pic for everyone. I don't know the answer to the question though. Looks like you've got a coolant leak too.

Oil pressure relief valve. Pull it, clean it, and put some Permatex #1 on the threads. Not very much.

And yeah, that's antifreeze leaking.

What do I need to "pull" that screw out?

 

[rjdavis21]

[mckc]

Alright, tell me how that goes. I wont be able to get to my car for a couple of days.

[mckc]

alright, i'll look into that as well.

Ok, so today I tried to get that screw out to fix the leak, and I dont know how to get it out. Its tight in there and I dont know what to use to get it out! What a pain in the butt. Does anyone know how to get this screw out?

Try spraying it with some pb blaster let it sit for 30 mins and spray it again. Also helps if you have the engine alittle warm also to release the threads abit more. If that doesnt work you will need to put it on a lift and use a breaker bar, should come out def. with a breaker bar and some leverage from your body weight pushing it forward.

I mean its more in a tight space and I can't get to it. Is there a way to take off the oil pressure sender thing(copper piece) and get to the screw?

take a wench, i think a 12mm if not a 14mm, and bam, the oil pressure sending unit ( copper piece) is loose and ready to be taking off..
