I unplugged from the harness, as well removing the 10mm bolt holding it in place. This baby is not moving at all, and is all plastic, I don't want to snap that thing off in the block. It slips in, with an o-ring to make a seal.

Any thoughts or how did you tackle this sensor?

There's also retaining clip holding the sensor . Be sure it's off too . Spray around with penetrating fluid and play with sensor. Should come off .
