How do I get the Tps sensor off of my hf ?? Please help!! Thanks

 

i took it off with a vise grip!!

 

how?

 

no no no...what u need to do is dremel a slot in the two attaching shear bolts and remove them with a regular flat head screw driver. The shear bolts are screwed in like regular screws but the heads are taken off or sheared off to prevent loosening and removal.

 

why would u want to take ur TPS Sensor off?

 

Drill that biznatch outta there.

what he said.. use a small saw or a dremel with a sharp cutting bit and cut a slot into the ends of the tps screws, then use a flathead screwdriver. Remember to align your new tps when u put it on.

I just changed the engine...When I put in the new one I realized that the connector portion of the new sensor was broken, but I didnt know how to change it...So i just taped the connector to the exposed connections and drove it...but it needs to be changed. thanks for all the replies!

 

I just finished posting a DIY for this very thing in another thread.
