I have done a lot of searches here google and YouTube. Is the special tool on your socket needed.? How hard is it to break the seal? Location? I got the Bosch part from Autozone

Wow, its right in front, the easiest to change...only question is any idea how much to tighten? snug then 1/4 turn?

Can't get the adapter loose. It has to be a press and pull bit even while pressing and using a flathead it has moved a few mm and I'm damaging the plastic w the flathead any advice??

After my right index finger turning purple after four hours of pressing that tab and even using a flathead to try and pry I gave up and went to Firestone offered then $20 to do it. After 20 minutes they gave up the dealer now. Can't believe can't get it apart. If I could get it off of that black plastic bracket I could get more leverage on it anyone know how to do that??

Final update....went to Mile High Acura to the "RL" guy and he said the black clip that was attaching the connector to the engine couldn't be removed without breaking it.....so you couldn't get any leverage on it.....I then brought it a week later to Toy Auto a local place on Broadway in Denver that specializes in Honda...Phil I assume is the owner walked out, popped the clip off in 2 seconds then you had leverage and it was a piece of cake, and he did it for free...he then reattached.....I sat there in utter disbelief......
