Sorry for what is probably a dumb question, but how the heck do I get the CPS out? I guess I also need to find out if I have the right part. I am at the ~10 o-clock position next to the crank, right below the water pump. The 10mm bolt seems to be holding the timing marker on and I can not locate any other bolt. The connector is about 1/2 inch wide with rounded ends and 3 pins. Is this even the CPS?
I found another connector above the water pump with a singe pin connector, but again, I can not see it and I cant feel any bolt on it. Does anyone have a picture of the CPS so I can see what type of connector I am looking for and where the bolt may be located? Thanks for any help.

It sounds like you found it but one thing to remember is to use a 6pt 10 mm socket. That bolt can be real tight after all the years and a 12 pt just might round off the head.
Thanks nashvillebill and bugman, I did manage to get the bolt out (after breaking my first socket) but the CPS does not move at all. Is there a trick to getting it out after removing the bolt?
Did mine last week, I used a long, skinny, flat pry bar and pried it loose using a rag against the oil pan lip as a heel. I remember I could get it to twist but not budge outward.

Thanks guys, I got it out. Worked it a bit with some channel locks and then pried out with a screwdriver. Picked up a new one from NAPA ($32) and put it in. So far so good. I'll drive it a bit tomorrow and see if she stalls out anymore. Thanks again for the help.
