95 blazer. I was changing the knock sensorse and on one of them the sensor broke off the threaded part. The threaded part is still in the engine block. And advice how to get it out? it wont budge.

Sounds like a classic mattress-in-pool type of problem. You'll need a crane for sure.

 

[andrewg]

ok?

dremel a slot in the senor, grab a screwdriver and twist that shit out

 

[andrewg]

im not even sure if i'll be able to get a dremel or screw driver down there. everythings so close.

 

[andrewg]

there is a plug right about the knock sensor plug that has the same thread. will the knock sensor work properly if i throw in in that plug.. if i can even get it out that is.

if you put a crane in a mattress it takes a pool to get it out.
