Here's how I did mine:

1) Disconnected the harness connection up by the intake manifold. Pulled the pigtail off, and then got underneath.

2) Dropped the front driveshaft, just so I'd have a little more wiggle room.

3) Got underneath. The screw heads are 11MM. Two screws, just like in that diagram.

4) Pulled the old one out.

5) On the new one, I uncoiled it the best I could, connected it in the engine compartment, snapped the thing into place on the bracket, then tied a length of wire to the sensor end. Shoved the wire down by the bellhousing, so I could pull the sensor down to where it had to go, gently uncoiling it. Bolted it in place and fired it up.

My Jeep runs like new, now.

Default cps

has 2 11 mm bolts. use lots of extinsions and a swivle. gl they are in a tight spot. i just did mine last week and then still had the same problem. the next thing i replaced was the electronic control module. it was 115. new at autozone with a lifetime waranty. the next thing that i would have done would have been the coil mounted on top of that, but that got it ....good to go again.....
