I found this on another forum.

"My advice is to relocate to the rear drivers side bolt that holds the upper plenum to the lower plenum.

Required: M8-1.25 x 100mm bolt, M8 lock washer, M10-1.50 nut, and M8 flat washer.

This is what some people do and it is fine. Others can argue this but unless you are taking apart the motor then this is a more than ample solution to get you going again."

But do you have a ECU Code 34? It's worth checking for and patching in the resistor would really confirm things.

You don't "reach" the KS without MANY hours of work taking the upper AND lower intake manifolds off. Of course, you then have to put them back on.

Just get a new one and a new wiring harness, relocate it and be done.
