Oil sender musta died - suggestions?

My gauge jumps 3/4's the way across and stays pegged there. I figure the sender. Anyone have helpful hints on a non-dealer source and any replacement help/suggestions? Thanks

Go to any Cummins dealer. That's where I got mine.

Can you tell me where the sender is on the block?

I found on my 99 the best way to replace it is to have a really really long 1/2 inch extension and go in over the left front wheel at least on the 4x4's.

Beat me to it! I showed this trick to a Cummins service writter. He was so impressed, he had one of his mechanics come out and replaced it for me.
