I'm sure someone here has a pic, but it's physical location is on the passenger side of the motor, on the rearmost cam.

Hmmm how long wud it take to replace it, and wut parts have to be removed in order to reach it? Still kinda hard to imagine w/o a pic...

It's literally a 5 minute job. Get a 1/4 inch ratchet, and a 5.5 (or 6.5mm) socket and have at it. It's two bolts and one plug. Nothing has to be removed to reach it.

There is a pic. somewhere in the archives... SPDATT posted it. It is a round black plastic disk shaped sensor that has a wire harness plugged into it on the rear passenger side across from the power steering pump and slightly above the serpantine belt.
I found that the power steering pump and wheel well made it pretty restrictive to get to, But then again I have "five thumbs". I used a "sidewinder" ratchet and made easy work of it. Be careful not to loose the screws, the new "Wells" CID at Autozone doesnt come w/ replacement ones

BTW musiccitysho, my car looks almost like urs. I also got 10% and 20%(rear) green mirror tint, cept tis not fade. Tis on my homepage, if u wunna check it out.

Val,

Welcome to the SHO Forum. I believe the picture below is the one that was referred to in the earlier posts. The Wells F134 sensor is available from AutoZone for $32.99. It is held onto the passenger side end of the rear bank exhaust camshaft with two 5.5mm (or 7/32") bolts. You can access the sensor by moving the power steering fluid reservoir up and out of the way. Tie-wrap the reservoir to the hood strut or strut tower. There is no need to disconnect the hoses.

You will find that you will exist much more peacefully within this Forum if you use properly written English sentences. I for one, am very much disinclined to spend the time to respond to a post if the author wont even take the time to write it.

Thanks for the welcome. I just have a habbit of abreviating words when typing. Sorry that I didn't use "search" before posting and made you all guys repeat yourselves, had no clue that this topic was previously discussed.
