reluctor wheel damage help I Have a 1998 pontiac trans am with a ls1 and a ball on the push rod broke off went into the reluctor ring on the crank and made it that the crank sensor wont read it right and it just starts up and shuts off i was wondering if any knows if any one after market makes that external to bolt onto the harmonic balancer and have the crank sensor read off that because their is nothing wrong with the motor just that the ring is damaged?

where can i get a new one i called the gm dealer and they told me i needed to buy the whole crank and they wanted 640... for it and we are a garage and get a dicounted price and i would really hate to put a reman crank in it because the car only has 40000 on it
Just get one off a ruined crank. Ask a crank co. where they buy theirs. You have to find stuff like that for yourself. This is not meant as a criticism of you but way too many folks ask questions on the forum that are easily answered if you just do your own searches on the web. I can take my time and do a search for you but why? Are your fingers not working? Time is the one thing we are all real short of. Good luck.

I wouldn't even try to mess with pulling one off and reusing it. If it's bent, it wont work right. Problem is, the crank must be removed from the engine to swap it. There is a special tool to replace it. Machine shop can do it.
