It looks solid, that’s all that matters. Plus it looks like easy work if for some reason you ever need to get back in there.
Thatll? Why not? (I was never that kind of English teacher... Besides, if you only knew how much I worried about calling car parts by the wrong name before this audience of experts!)Thatll work! Yes I am aware thatll is not a word
The electrical connector is a quite difficult to manage. Do not stick a screwdriver to it though.
If you can reach it, the tab in the center top of connector pushes in. While doing so push the connector on tighter, then try pulling it off. Most ford electrical connectors are "squeeze to release".
Careful though. That is the pressure vent sensor. It's even harder to replace the sensor than remove the connector. The L shape makes it easy to break off.
Great job cutting the access panel. If you can manage that part you got this.
Don't have an answer for your question but have you done research on exactly WHERE to cut for your 95 SPORT ?.... there's variances from "on top" reference points from 4 doors to sports.... 95-97 to 98-2001 years... be careful and accurate.How reliable/long lasting is this pressure vent sensor? I'm getting ready to cut my access hole to replace the fuel pump and was wondering if it should be replaced from a preventive maintenance standpoint. 190,000 miles on my 01 sport. With an access door, I guess I could service it at any time.
Also, what is that light blue thing in one of the op's pictures?

I've never heard of one failing
Must not happen often
