Anyone else ever dealt with a leaky speed sensor?

How can I stop the leak…remove and teflon tape?

Any thoughts? Any hints?

Took a better look. It’s not leaking from the bolt. It’s leaking from between the wires…I suppose the boot is a little tired.

Anyway to seal that up again? Anyone recomend some sort of spray sealant?

the best thing to do is take out the plug and clean off the entire plug, make sure there is no oil of anykind on it , then you have one of two options 1- you can get a tube of urathane and apply it to the plug and with a tooth pick push it into the open area and let site for 12hrs. 2- same as step one but use jb weld instead of urathene, the jbweld will only take an hour to harden.

farmer  
p.s. i have both if you bring the sensor to me i can fix it for you  
save you $

But I don’t think JB-Weld will bond to the rubber boot … I’m not sure how well it will seal.
