gp90se Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 This has been talked about a few times, but theres no easy solution. I have heard everything from using an air compressor in the dipstick hole 2 force it up, needle nose pliers with a flat head, or push it all the way down and put the new 1 in since the oil pickup cant grab it (not reccomended by me). to pull the oil pan you need to drop the subframe. good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elca69 Posted December 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 I have used an angle drill and have 2 drill bits stuck in it, trying blaster and I'm able to wiggle it !!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5speedz34 Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 I've heard super glueing a bolt head to it and pulling it out like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeorge Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 I took a long 4-5 inch sheet rock screw and if you push it all the wya in untill it hits the crank you can screw it into the broken section...and comes right out....here is a hint aim for the side of the sensor not the center...worked for me....PS remove the alt and the alt bracket and get a left handed person to do it works great......
