One happy "Cracker"! SPeeD Sensor Pics.A way of THANX.

This is the sequel to "Rigging Speed sensor??my idea." Thread.
My Way of thanking u guys. i got pretty Good ,understandable pictures of Mount.
1 more . I have an Automatic. And yes your looking picture of a Flywheel and clutch assembly in a Automatic. I have a working" Damper /Clutch "modification.
Finally got the other sensor and successfully completed ,Removal,Bracket adjustment ,and install. And here is some of the McGyver form Brooklyn tips.
**WARNING** If you listen to this guy,, Ur nutz.! .
My advice is Free. The only time you might wind up Paying for it,is if you don't take it.;-l

i would say if you have good sensors and feel,the gaping might need adjustment . DONT remove sensors ,Its possible to remove bracket with sensors in place . And with ease. Reason is . the wires on sensors can be damage very easy. Especial while you are turning them to remove them . and sometimes this can prove to be a waste of time from the start . Your sensors might have been impacted and malformed .
easiest way of doing it .
Tools - 10mm socket for sensor bolts. this is later on ,if needed.
a 1 -6mm short or normal Hex(allen) wrench/key. and a breaker bar . (3/8"or 1/2"{wat ever kind of pipe u find}).
Cover bell housing holes 1st ,with duct tape .
remove the the Pivot and adjusting bracket screws on sensor mount. Tap them 1st. Good way of breaking metal screws to aluminum ,bonds. penetrating oils help too.
once screws removed using the hex key with breaker bar. Wiggle up and down on bracket while pushing toward rear to clear pivot dowe.
once out . face bottom and you can EASILY tap out the sensors ,without any damage .
clean ,bla ,bla ,bla ,install bracket ,leaving screws lose for pivoting bracket to get the correct gap ,
Matches are perfect . Any light holding glue.Cut 2 match sticks to fit on botton of speed sensor(Which is the one closest to tranny.) and glue. . install speed sensor while bracet is lose . hold the sensor ,touching the teeth on ring gear so it is bottomed out,. And then tighten the sensor screw. now you have the gap required . get that hex key ,and tighten pivot and adjusting screws on mount. make sure speed sensor is still bottomed out .
Install reference sensor.
and now its good . the matches will be thrown off when starting . Causing no damage at all.
Mine works !!! thanks to any1 who gave me their input and criticism .And also grief and disrespect, Also possible friendship.;-)http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1317499937.jpg

My old sensor was impacted and set to low. the speed sensor was even worse.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1317500130.jpg

was this better ,then 1st thread,guys? i didnt spell check or proof read . but i think it will pass. any questions or need of translation . Just HMU . BTW you can see the flywheel stud in one of the pic. very easy to remove or adjust if needed without removing housing ,as i read somewhere.
1 more thing was i suppose to use a spacer on one sensor . Both were mounted flush with bracket. The reference sensor sits higher on the bracket. i noticed . that probably compensates for the stud . Ill bet you is 5mm higher,just like stus on flywheel suppose to be.
once more was i suppose to user a spacer or washer ,between sensor and mounting surface ? if so what height spacer ?. I was nt too clear on that part,.
Thank you kindly .http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1317500771.jpg

They are the same but you need both. In all fairness, I think you got a little ahead of yourself with us. No race comments is a general rule of life. Its not cool to be racists anymore and its even less cool to joke about a slur. Ie. My grandfather was a racist and we all just looked past it but he was old and didn't joke about it. Try a different tack brother. We are friendly and helpful but grown up for the most part. You wont get far with this group by being a douche. Probably in your best interest to digress and talk like an adult. I understand you are having ahard time with your spelling (no biggie, I suck at math) so ill let you know that there is a spell checker at the bottom if the post window. You were trying to make friends and we will give you another chance. Just keep it about the porsche and leave the ñ bomb out of it. Im white and I would ponder back slapping a white guy for saying that word. And im front the south. Racisim is so 20th century now I stick with jerry rigged. Y best advice... hit the local junk yards fir a budget fix. Good luck bro. Straighten up and fly right.....

Rocket. I quoted the wrong post. Nothing was directed your way.

from the OP i think he was referring to the factory TDC sensor being used as the speed sensor...
