O.G. Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Tried to remove the air sensor bolted on the black plastic inlet manifold due to an issue I'm having with severe kangarooing.I undid the screw, although the sensor loosened up and could be swiveled around it would not come out with moderate force. Is there something I'm missing or can I just pull harder. Is it possibly held in by a tight seal/O ring?O.G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Vine Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 If it's one of these:then, yes, there's an O-ring around the circular stem, as shown here.ETA: Btw, how is yours attached to the plenum? Mine is bolted to the roller-barrel backplate with an Allen screw and nyloc.JV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisC Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Has it failed? It's just a push fit once the screw has been removed, so it should pull off, unless someone has glued it in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O.G. Posted March 30, 2021 Author Share Posted March 30, 2021 I don't know if it's failed but I'm desperate to solve this kangarooing so I'm looking at everything. I will try harder to remove it out tomorrow.ThanksO.G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisC Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Ok, happy to help get your car running correctly, assuming it's a standard Duratec Caterham, but I am based in Essex so it's a fair trek for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
