Looking for crank sensors install tips & tricks

86 951. So I have already toasted a sensor because since I didn't remove the bracket to remove and install the first set of sensors, I didn't check the gap and paid the price. Now the bracket is out because of the smashed sensor and I am looking to reinstall it and the sensors.

Hoping someone might be able to provide some advice on the process to make it as least painful as possible. I know about the 8mm washer to set gap, I'm just looking for things like the order to do stuff, should I grease/lub the sensors to install them and the procedure for checking the clearance by turning over the engine by hand.

Links to articles or videos would help too.

Thanks! - John
