    Thanks Scotty for the write up. I'm attempting this tomorrow morning, and have a question.

    The puller kit that I borrowed from Auto Zone has a little pointy end piece that can go on the end of the forcing screw. Without that piece, it looks like the end of an extension, kind of like you used. Since the forcing screw is the same shape as the extension, I'm assuming that I don't need it or the little pointy thing? Is this right?

    I'll be watching this topic for the next few hours, so if someone needs pictures, just ask, and I'll have them within a few minutes. I just don't want to go out to my car unless necessary. It's cold as hell out there.

    BTW, this question is directed at anyone smart enough to answer. Not just Scotty.

    Edit: Question answered over PM. Thanks again Scotty.

    So my husband and I had to replace this sensor this weekend and I am soo thankful that I had found this thread..... finding the bolts to go into the harmonic balancer was a chore...we got the 4inch ones and they were actually too long.....so we would say maybe a 3 1/2 inch ones if you can find them...but I am soo glad that I had found this or our car would still be sitting in the garage thank you very much!!!!!!

    Fantastic write up and diagnostic details. I have been chasing this "ghost" for about three years. I must have a short in the wire or a tempermental sensor. Sometimes it does it orten and then will disappear for a while. Any one in the Houston area in for a mod day?

    Hello, I'm new to the forum. I was trying to get some info on replacing my crank position sensor. I found but the click here takes me to a error page, can anyone help?
