This is a new post in response to folks who wanted to see a pic. I uploaded to the image library but not sure how to display here. Link below.

The plastic CPS was corroded to the bracket. The bracket broke during the removal attempt. The CPS and the broken piece had to be separated by pliers with thebase in a vise. It's not the best design for an electronic part that easily fails.

Removal of the bracket (attached to the back of the engine block) requires removal of the transmission. In this case and M47. 2 hrs 20 mins total time (car up on a lft) with the final 20 minutes in separating the bellhousing from the engine - both dowels were frozen.

The plus here is that the M47 is light and can be handled without a jack if necessary on removal.
