Pressure Sensor EDS

Be really careful removing Oetiker style crimp-on ear clamps on vacuum and pressure lines. I like them better than the sloppy looking Gates screw clamps for vacuum lines but if you twist them with side cutters to remove them, you risk breaking the part that the hose is attached to. I was holding the hose with pliers and didn't think there was any twisting force on the sensor. I epoxied the nipple back on and it looks good - meanwhile I'll order another sensor.
