I was out trying to replace my camshaft position sensor today. I got down to the sensor only to not be able to get to one of the bolts holding the sensor on due to some heater hoses that are on a y shaped connector mounted to the engine. The hoses attach to metal piping which make up most of the y shaped connector. How the hell do I get this thing out of my way because it is the only thing blocking me from fixing my gas mileage and idle problem and it is severely pissing me off!

 

one word: hammer.

 

It's tempting. Very tempting.

 

Nevermind you non-helpers. I figured it out by putting a little umph into it.
