removing camshaft position sensor

If you have ever replaced the camshaft position sensor how did you guys do it? Did you remove the coolant hose thats behind it or is there a trick to it? I would like to avoid doing this if I can... But right now i cant pull that sucker out cuz that hose is in the way.

Yeah don't mess up the o ring and if you have small hands it will help its a tight fight to get in there to put it back in

lol yeah. I didn't have problem with that too much... Funny tho because last night it was completely fine, started it like 3 times while i went out, but this morning it was taking a few time to start..... I took it apart and lined up those marks... and now its fine again. Hopefully it will stay that way.
