I sent some pix of the driver's side CPS & Connector to Bill if he wanted to
post the pix to his website's tech section.

You can remove it from underneath using your 1/4" socket set with a 7/16"
socket on a long extension.

The connector mount takes, I seem to recall, a 10 mm wrench

Clean it anyway - the corrosion you get there is too thin to really
see anyway. You probably cleaned it enough just with the friction of
unpluging it.

I use the waterproof dielctric grease on that rubber seal on the plug
- seems to make the cleaning last longer. Works especially well on
the TPS and IAC connectors on the throttle body.
