If you are going the new AC Delco route let me know I can save you some cash.
I need to order one too.. Our oil gauge spazzes out sometimes, it's kinda funny to watch. :laugh:

Yeah Im going with AC. Do you get some sort of discount??
And as for the part number is it 19201491 as you typed, or is it 10201491 as the links lists it?
use the one in the link. $25.29 from GM Parts Direct
Well, I ended up buying a Niehoff sending unit from Canadian Tire instead, because then I could fix it right away. I put it in the TGP today, and no more oil leak. :) Its quite the trick loosening the old one and tightening the new one. I removed the oil filter, but still had to work around the 2 coolant lines for the oil cooler (didn't feel like draining the coolant). Between a combination of channel locks and a 1 1/16" wrench, I got the job done. Ideally an EXTRA deep 1 1/16" socket would work very well....if you can find one. Thanks for the replies.
you got in there with a channel locks & wrench? :icon_eek: i tried and tried but could not do it.

i ended up just pulling the oil cooler and oil filter adapter off. i had to use a 1 & 1/8" deep socket. regular NA 3.1 sensor was 1 & 1/16" but the TGP sensor is bigger (at least mine was).
ya GM lists 2 differing "styles" of that part.
one short one is longer for some reason.....same function
Trust me....it was a bitch.
Update, just re-replaced this part today, this time with a GM part. Niehoff POS only lasted 14k.
Lost about a quart of oil before I realized oil was pissing out of the oil pressure sending unit.
Left a nice trail down my street and driveway.
Anyways, no harm done.
This time I customized a 1 1/16" deep socket to get the job done. Stretched it an additional 3/4" by cutting it in half and welding it back together with a piece of pipe in between as a spacer.
Lesson learned, buy GM sensors.
Any tips to get this sucker off? I think mine is trickling a little oil. If I had to I'll take out the cooler, but prefer not to deal with doing that..again....thanks Matt!
Also, I assume GM has lots of these in stock?

and remove your oil filter, that is all.
The proper socket is only about $5-6. ;)
where?

where?
I believe I got mine at Advance Auto or Autozone. I can't remember if I had to order it or if they stocked it though, it's been several years since I bought the socket(s). I'll look around the next time I'm in there to see if they still have them.
BTW, what auto part stores do you guys have in Canada?
Canadian Tire, Partsource (same supplier as Canadian Tire), NAPA, UAP, the dealer LOL. Thats the major ones.
We don't have pep boys, advance, autozone or any of that.
