Richard,

I use a skeletal socket I made from a 15/16" deep socket.  I would have used
a 24 mm deep socket had I had one kicking around the toolbox when I entered
into battle with the well shrouded oil pressure switch.  I took a big bite out
of the middle of the socket which allowed limited although sufficient swing to
loosen the pressure switch.
