In case anyone has to replace their CHT sensor which is a PITA, you'll have to make some type of tool. I ground down a corner off a 3" extension, and attached a deep socket.
It's much easier to install and uninstall if you remove the decel valve and MPS. Here's a picture of the extension and socket with the CHT ready to install. I attached the washer to the CHT sensor with a drop of superglue: |

The PO soldered a 1/8w resistor to the old one, and the vibration caused it to snap. I had a NOS one from mark heard so I put that one in place of the old one instead of repairing the wire. |
