I recently purchased a Cyl head Temp sender extension from Brad Mauer....and a new sender. Working room is very tight in that area. I'm thinking of using a 13mm semi deep socket and maybe vice grips .....Has anyone got a better idea. Do I need to remove the Fuel Injection rails first? Thanks

Spray the sensor with PB Blaster and let it sit over night. You have aluminum threads in an aluminum head. You don't want the sensor snapping off leaving the threads! Ask me how I know. I had to carefully drill and tap out the head and make an insert to fit the new sensor.
