some times the wire that plugs into it runs over the top of the brake booster hose and you have to reach back there and unplug it or you will brake it every time (happened to me a few times LOL). Is has not happened to me sense I found this...
After I get the intake loose, I unplug the sensor then reach around the back of the intake and lift the brake booster line up and over the sensor as I pull the intake forward. Why GM but a massive fragile sensor right there and wrapped the vaccum line around I'll never know.

I broke mine too. Nothin but an aggravation. Gotta make sure the wire is disconnected. then I found the best way is to keep your hand in between the intake and the sensor while tryin to set it in place.
