swap of new vss to old one

[addict_cb7]

how hard or difficult is it to swap a new vss with a broken/corroded vss? if its not too hard to have to get a professional to do it, what are the steps and tools required for the replacement? ideas are heavily urged.

the vss is located on the transmission directly below the air intake tubing area. simply remove your intake and you should be able to see the 1 plug that connects to the vss. Remove the plug, and remover the 10mm bolt that secures the VSS to the tranny housing. Pull the entire assembly upwards and the whole VSS assembly should come out. Replace with the new one and be sure to not over tighten the 10mm bolt. Replace intake, and you should be set...

your talking about the intake that sits to the back of the battery? is that correct?

now do i have to unbolt the three bolts holding it on? or what? i know it seems like a pety question but im fixing to put a new one in soon so i need to know.

I don't know if you are replacing the whole assembly or just the sensor. The pics only show me removing the sensor. There are 2 10mm bolts that secure the sensor. The other 3 philip screws are to take the sensor apart.
