This is the sensor that is on the drivers side if the engine 9looking from front on the right). I am dot sure if removing the heat shield will help. the problem I have is when I put the slotted socket on the sensor I do not have enough plau to get my breaker bar to have enough room to remove the sensor. Also the slotted socket gives a little bit by expanding toward the bottom and the socket slips. I think removing the upper radiator hose should help with the amount of space I have to get a good pull on the sensor. Does anyone have the part number of this sensor? I haven't ordered one hoping to get the part number off the old one. Since I haven't got it out I am not sure. Thanks.......
