I don't know if you received my message but here it is again to help everyone else who runs into this problem.
Honestly. I believe I got lucky on this one. The extension bar I used was a 1/2" extension bar that got twisted and bent a bit from a previous use. So it was angled where it was barely enough to grip the sensor. It's a tough spot to get to. I'd recommend you use ratchet with a SWIVEL SOCKET or a SWIVEL EXTENSION. It helps you get pass through these ugly angles. Here's a link to what I'm talking about if you don't know what SWIVELs are. Just a FYI. it should be fairly easy to loosen up. Shouldn't be on their so tight. http://s.ecrater.com/stores/67508/483a4f5b5fcba_67508n.jpg This post has been edited by ILoveMySilly97: Nov 24, 2012 - 11:38 AM -------------------- |
