It's the little things... Knock Sensors are in, Crank Position Sensor was removed, put some anti-seize on sides of sensor, and replaced in what felt like record time (30 minutes total)!
I twisted the CPS back and forth and got about 4 feet of wire wrapped around it. Multiple tugs (pulling straight up) and it came out! I thought I might be in for multiple hours of pain on this one but thankfully NO.
I cleaned the grounds at the back of the engine. Wire brush, 220 grit sandpaper, Deoxit 5, Stabilant and tighten back up. We'll see how Mother's Day and the final round of that slightly famous golf tournament we have here in Jacksonville goes but I am hoping to clean all other grounds tonight and get the waterbridge back on from my intake refresh. If I do, pics will follow!
Happy Mother's Day!
