Hey guys,
Posted this last note in the wrong area, too many drinks [emoji4]
Apparently, my switch is leaking where its pressed together. Anyhow, got a new one and want to replace it asap.
Can this be done now or am i gonna get a 5 quart oil bath and should wait a month for the next oilchange? Am i thinking right or is it like replacing the oil cooler were there is only a half a quart loss ? Thanks fellas

I have not remove one before, but from the look and the location where it is; there should not be any oil coming out from it if removed for replacement with oil in the engine. It is located much higher over the oil pan. If any, it would be much less then the removal of the oil cooler.
 
Just an update. Switched the oil pressure sensor and it's drip free now [emoji3] . The part was an after market one for about $15 , i did put some thread sealant on it for added security too. Very easy to do and i lost about 8 oz of oil when unscrewing. Hardest part was gettng the threads lined up to get them started. Torqed to 13 ft lbs per shop manual. Cheers
