On an XJ40 can the oil pressure sender unit be removed, for cleaning
purposes, without having to drain the oil?

Thanks

Hi,
Yes the pressure sender is above the oil sump and the level of oil is not
that high.
It's safe to remove for cleaning and also at the same time check with
another gauge
that the pressure is OK. It's not for sure thate there is aproblem with
dirt.
