Knock Sensor Removal

Pulled starter but I can't get anything on this sensor. The shield is in the way. How does this get removed?

Also, does it take a special socket like an oil pressure sending unit socket?
 
Yep they are different. The 94/95 sensor has a larger thread size into the block.

Anyone have a sensor for a late model they want to sell or bring to the shootout?
 
Thanks I forgot about that site. I'll see if I can locate a 4.6L then in a junk yard might be easier?

The one that got shipped my friend said is too small and I know the early model ones have a smaller thread.
 
Not sure exactly what you're swapping, but the well that the sensor screws into is removable too. It's block-side threads are the same year to year. I think the connectors are different though...
