I'm in the process of putting a new engine in my B2. Not doing anything cool, just putting in a completely rebuilt 2.9L. I ordered a short block from Jasper Engines. Reusing some of my old parts, and replacing what needs to be replaced.

Most of the stuff I'm finding that I need has been no problem. But now I'm stuck. There is a sensor in the oil pan, but I'm not sure what it's called. The pigtail that attaches to that sensor is destroyed. What is that sensor called, and where could I find that pigtail?

Not sure what the sensor is but have you tried lmctruck.com? They usually have all the odd parts you can't find anywhere else.

I've found a couple decent level sensors on Ebay. They seem to run in the $60-$80 dollar range. Might be worth checking out. My level sensor is fine except for the seal leaks. I would like to do it the right way and get a new seal but can't find one anywhere - may just have to go with RTV on the old one.
