As I continue to figure out my sometimes sputtering engine I checked into exploring my crank sensor. Has anyone changed one of these? I tried to take it out to examine it and it won't come out. I removed the 10mm bolt, that was easy. But either it has melted or deformed as I could not remove it and I broke the ear where the bolt goes. In the end I jb welded it back on and put the bolt back.

I did however discover that the wires on both sides of the connector plug were baked. So I then chose to shorten and splice back the wires and reroute them more towards the passenger side of the firewall. Additionally the foil around the sensor wires was missing/damaged. So I used some new aluminum foil and wrapped it up again. I simply cut away part of the plastic sheathing for the wire running back to the ECM side. Mainly what I am worried is if the pickup coil is melted or not? Should it easily come out? If not what else needs to be done to allow it to be removed?
