Where is the oil pressure sensor in a 199 dodge ram van 318?

The oil pressure sensor on a 1999 Dodge Ram Van with a 318 engine is typically located on the driver's side of the engine block, near the oil filter. However, the exact location can vary slightly depending on the specific engine configuration and year of manufacture within that model year.

To be certain, you should:

1. Consult a repair manual: A Haynes or Chilton manual specific to your 1999 Dodge Ram Van with the 318 engine will have a diagram showing the exact location.

2. Use a parts diagram: Many online auto parts stores (like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, etc.) allow you to look up parts diagrams for your specific vehicle. Find the oil pressure sensor in the diagram; this will pinpoint its location on the engine.

Looking at the engine itself is the best method once you have a general idea of the location from a diagram. It's usually a relatively small sensor with one or two wires attached. Be cautious when working around hot engine components.
