    From what I have searched, I know that this topic has been covered before, but I'm still in the dark. Wondering if anyone has a photo of the oil sending unit location on an even fire V6? PO of the 70 CJ-5 had pulled and replaced the odd fire with a re-built even fire, and added in new gages to the dash. Including oil pressure sensor with the 1/8 inch hose running back to the sensor (hose isn't hooked up), and after about 30 min. looking for the sending unit, I'm still not able to find it. I know it should be back toward the rear on the passenger side. Any help would be appreciated.

    Just for the record - YES - the OF and EF have the port in the same location.
