It is easier to remove/install sensor from under vehicle.

1. Raise and support vehicle.
2. Disconnect electrical connector at CMP sensor (Fig 1 ).
3. Remove sensor mounting bolt (Fig 1 ).
4. Carefully twist sensor from cylinder head. Some 4.7L engines are equipped with a sensor spacer shim. If equipped, this shim will be located at sensor bolt hole between cylinder head and sensor mounting tang (TSB W08-18-00). Save this shim for sensor installation. 
5. Check condition of sensor O-ring.
