My plan looks almost exactly like that one but it is gold-ish in color and is only advertised as a 7 qt pan.Model 15-680s. 6 qts almost comes up to the top of the kick out. Electrical seems good. No change with brake application.

My sender looks similar to that one but is not as long and has a 1/4 to 3/8 npt adapter. So it is not as deep into the oil. The bung is half way up the side of the pan as seen in the above picture. I do have a high volume pump too.

So maybe the sensor is coming uncovered when driving. How high is the oil supposed to be on the pan itself? How far down from the block - center of the rotating crank? I put 6 qts of oil in it and marked the dipstick before installing the pan.
