Just a quick note -
The sensor plug I found on my 2000 was slightly different than the earlier plugs, and the terminals are numbered by the factory, rather than lettered.
Here is a shot I took of the 2000 plug, with the terminals labeled.
I got 25Ω between terminals 1 and 2, on my old plug, and ∞Ω on the new plug (which fixed the no-run problem).
Incidentally, once I had hunted down the right combination of extensions and sockets form their hiding places, I had no problem removing and re-installing the sensor single-handedly.
I needed: ratchet, ~18" extension, universal (with a few wraps of electrical tape for some stiffness), ~3" extension (or a deep socket), 11mm socket and a magnetic socket insert to hold the fastener.
Removal was fairly easy, if annoying, and took less than five minutes.
Replacement was more annoying, requiring me to wedge my hand behind the engine from above to place the sensor in position, then carefully place and thread the screws from below, and took about ten minutes.
