I was trying to measure volts. I put the probes on each terminal and it just stayed at 0. I would have thought it would have atleast beeped at me like when you touch the probes together and it reads 0. I guess maybe I didn't have them on the contacts in the sensor? It is a pain to get to but I was 99% sure I was making contact with each of the terminals in the sensor. I had my head against the part of the turbo that the exhaust comes together at to drive the turbo(what is the correct name for that part?) and I could clearly see I was touching one of the terminals and was sure I felt the terminal I couldn't see clearly and the meter didn't make a noise or move. Is there a trick to removing the sensor with out having half the HPOP resi spilling oil on to everything? I think it would be best to pull the sensor and bench test it.

So, just in case nobody has noticed, I am not the most knowledgable when it comes to the various acronyms for these motors. Sad to say, that is about where my wrenching ability lies as well. Having said that, I noticed when somebody was replacing the injectors (that would be me) they had removed the boost hose from the part going into the turbo, opposite the end of the hose showing in the picture. When reassembling, they just pushed the hose back on the barb but never put the clamp back on. Could this be any sort of contributing factor? Thanks.
