Just wondering... how tough is it to change this sensor? I have some basic tools with jack stands and a hydrolic jack...

I have some basic tools with jack stands and a hydrolic jack... its not hard at all if u look on ur motor if u have a 5sfe....go to the front of ur car, look at the motor's valve cover, on the driver side of the valve cover right below it is the knock sensor it screws into the head or the oil pressure sensor. in the book its the same thing. -------------------- [font=Comic Sans Ms][size=3]

Thanks for the correction. Hopefully I will get to it today after work since it's not raining. Quick question, if all I need are new wires, will any wires do?
