crank case cover removal help
 

So i went to go and remove my crankcase (the right side motor cover) and the first step is to disconnect the "crankshaft position sensor"....wtf! Is there some sort of trick to this because i was pullin on that thing for bout 10 mins before i finally gave up. Do i even really need to disonnect it? Im just tryin to pull the crankcase off so i can get it powdercoated right now.
