BIG oil leak @ pressure sender

Yeah.. I have a rather large oil leak..i believe it to be at my pressure sender. Everything on that side of the engine is completely coated in oil, and it drips 1 drop/5 seconds at idle (what, like 30psi or so), and like 2 drops/second at the high pressure.. It's only taking like 1/4 quart/day out, but it's still a huge PITA. Do i need a *NEW* one, or can I take it out and clean it off and get it to seal properly?

hello

To answer your questions on the oil leak try a new one. I am happy to see someone from Louisville. I am the president of the Kentuckiana RX-7 Club. What is your real name and are you already a member. http://www.kentuckianarx7club.20m.com

Hey! Actually, a few months ago, I ran into one of your members in a kroger parking lot.. We talked for about an hour.. He had a graphic design company... I think it was Charles Renne.

But nope, I'm not a member...yet. My name is Elliott Bennett.

from mazdatrix.com:
14-8200-N201.....SENDER OIL PRESSURE...81-92 ALL..............$ 57.20
Huh.. I thought it was around 100$.. I wish I would have ordered it a week ago with my SS brake lines and saved on shipping...heh. Oh well...
