It sounds like you should break torque, spin the crush washer 1/3 turn and retorque.
Double stacking crush washers sometimes helps to overcome sump
Plate deficiencies, or in the instances where the sensor contacts the inner diameter of the sump plate with the outer tip of its hex head.

A replacement sensor is available through my company.
