Slits in the screw heads are made.

Gasket and rusted screws make it pretty much impossible to get off.

Cut threw the sensor around the screws. Go until you are close to the gasket, no need to cut threw until you see it.

Right around there is fine. This is because the at this point the sensor is held on by a thread and you can simply clamp some channels on there and twist is off.

Clamp the channel locks (Pliers) around one of the remaining screws and start turning counter clockwise to relieve the screw. Should end up with something like this.

After removing the screws, go ahead and clean up the surface with an exacto-knife blade or if that doesn't work, the 320 grit dremel attachment. After some clean up you should end up with a clean surface.

Install the new gasket and TPS. The screws that came with mine did not fit but I was able to use the old screws because of the slits I created in the beginning. This allowed me to use a flat head to tighten them or loosen while calibrating.
