It should be a 1-5/8" socket but mine had been roughed up by someone in the past trying to get it out so a slightly larger socket would have been nice.You may want to see if you can reach the wires with your hand from the side access panel. You will be shoulder deep and have to do it by feel. Make sure you have a good work light that you can get in the machine. A flashlight will also help but a light inside the machine won't throw as many shadows and you will want both hands free. Good light makes a huge difference when working on these.Mine was under part of the pump. I ended up having to use wide mouth vice grips to get my sending unit out but I also did it from the side access panel. I needed a universal joint to get a socket on the replacement. Basin wrenches are great for hard to reach items. I had to use one on hydraulic hoses that normally take a special offset wrench to get to.</blockquote>
