The one thats on there now I can't get the tin nut to tighten. It just keeps turning and turning...junk. Im not sure tho how I'm going to change that without taking the hpop and all off again, sure is tight
if you can't spin the ipr nut off you might be able to get some snips or dikes down there and cut the nut then bend it off. Those nuts are not very strong.. Once that comes off , slide the solenoid off and then take a 1/2 inch drive 29mm deep well socket and remove the remaining part of the sensor. Socket has to be extra deep, they sell them at oriellys , its called a axle nut socket. It would be a bummer to Remove the whole hpop just to remove the sensor

How does your gauge compare?https://youtu.be/h3LsuCmaD-4?list=PL...JZEE-Kv1XAzSir
That sounds great Sous, I wonder if that starter might eliminate my occasional ring gear grinding? Or make it worse

Dumb question for you. Have you checked the oil? If it is leaking a lot you may not have enough oil for the injectors to work.
