I have already broken off the crank sensor on a 92 Cutlass, 3.1.I could sure use some help on how to get the oil pan off. Thanks.[/b]

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

I have used an angle drill and have 2 drill bits stuck in it, trying blaster and I'm able to wiggle it !!!!!

I've heard super glueing a bolt head to it and pulling it out like that.

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......
