    I got so frustrated I gave up on replacing mine, I have small hands and long arms and could still not get to it. Good luck though, I may attempt this again when I change out my valve covers.

    Make sure that the sensor is fully seated. You can put a bit of coolant on the O Ring to help slide it in. The clip will only go on one way. If Im remembering right, the open end of the clip goes towards the drivers side and the closed end towards the passenger side. It is a bit of a pain, but it's definitely possible.
