i wasa putting in a new fuel filter and cought the wire. how can i fix this? it snapped flush with the fitting. i'm not worried about it right now, cause i have the instr. cluster without a tach, so its just an oil light. in a few weeks i'll be putting in a cluster with a tach, replacing the sending unit, but i will still need this wire and fitting i broke.

any help would be much appreciated.

Where did it break.? I know on my truck there is actually a short pigtail connected to the main harness. This pigtail can be picked up at the dealer for either the oil psi sender or the idiot light sender. I think they are less then $10.
