[T3] Oil Pressure Sensors...

[J. Jonik]

I'll see how easy it is to find new Oil Pressure Sensors for ancient VWs.
In the meantime, is there any "cure" for leaky Pressure Sensors?  Maybe a hit for a few minutes with a Heat Gun...to maybe swell up the plastic?   Soaking in something? 
Maybe salvaged ones should be stored in some oil or diesel to prevent any drying up shrinkage?

In general, if they don't leak, they don't need to be replaced. No 
matter the origin, they are cheap and easy to replace. Don't fret 
about them.
