interestinly I had the same torn o-ring as CamasM3e93. sensor has original date code so i don't think it's been off before, and the tear definitely looks like it was from being screwed on, not from removal (the excess rubber is up the connector, not down). wonder if that's just expected?
either way, doing this resolved by vacuum pump running issues. went from running on every brake pedal press to only briefly on startup.

I eventually needed to replace the vacuum pump altogether, keep in mind in particular if it was ‘over running’ for a long while
