Default How do i take this sensor off? o.0

I would search but i dont really know what sensor this is so i cant really search for it, sorry

Anyway these arent screws, they arent bolts, what the hell are they? Im almost ready to drill them out and replace it with regular screws, would that work? Let me know, btw its off an H22







Right behind the throttle body. Thanks.

cut a notch in it with a cut off wheel, then use a flat head screw driver

Is that the TPS sensor on the throttle body?

Thats your TPS sensor.

You can take a screwdriver and a hammer and spin it, theyre never on that tight. Just replace them with regular screws afterwards.

the best way that i've found is to use a spring loaded punch. Just start on the edge
and work your way around, eventually it will loosen up and you can take it with your fingers, if you dont have a spring punch you can pick them up at sears for like $8

Before you reinstall it get some new hardware

I suggest getting 2 long studs to thread in there, and then 2 nuts. This will make it a lot easier to adjust it later on in the future. I like using the nuts because getting a screw driver back there can be a pain.
