Sometimes the rubber boot over the wire has gotten hardened from age & heat, that can be the difficult part of the job.

Think safety. When you're underneath there tugging on a wrench, make sure the car is properly supported.

Thanks Jim,

I had the car up on ramps, and just to be sure put a hydraulic jack under the frame as a precaution.

Much abliged, folks, for this thread. Just had to register to express my appreciation. Was tasked with the same dilemma. Oil filter? - black plastic hoses under the oil pressure switch? - oil pan? All the while noticing the oil on the switch. One more oil filter later......there's got to be a solution online. Voila' - Thanks
