i just got a 93 lude si and when i was inspecting the engine i found one prong sensor broke this is located on the back of the motor right on top of the oil filter could anyone tell me what's the name of the sensor so that i can fix this and be on my way with my new project thanks in advance

ps ill try to post some pics just in case

 

i believe that is your knock sensor

 

i thought the knock sensor was in the distributor....could that be the oil pressure sensor?

 

yes it is the oil pressure sensor

 

here is a pic i took not to good but maybe you guys can help me by the way the color of the wire that you plug on this sensor is red with a blue stripe that can help you guys help me find the name of this sensor

Knock sensor

 

The oil pressure switch is actually below the oil filter
so it couldn't be that unless he worded it wrong.

 

what does that do?

 

well i found one for dirt now here is anothe question seems to me like you got to have a special tool to get it out do you know where to get one

 

I just replaced mine, but I dont know mm. However in std its a 1-1/16" socket. It'll get the old one out for sure, if its not a deep socket, and for replacement I didnt have a deep so I just hand tightened it for now. No cels, so I cant complain.
