I need some advice

[e90suprat]

So for the last few days I have been trying to remove the oil pressure sender, with no luck. Today I finally got the some-bitch off, and smashed it with a hammer(I know it's immature, but damn it felt good). I was installing the adapter for the new sender, and it snapped. So now I have a little bit of the threads sticking out of the block, how the hell do I get it out without getting the metal shavings into the engine? Any advice would be appreciated:1zhelp:


Damn I'm glad this car isn't my dd!

Go t sears and get one of those revese threaded removal kits. The piece thats left in the block should be hollow, so threead the correct size infor the piece and it should come out.

I've already got one of those, just need to get an extension for the drill, I just wasnt sure if I should use that or not. Thanks for the input.

Other than drilling it out the use of power tools usually makes things worse. Use an easy out or a 1/8 pipe extractor. Or a left handed drill bit. Or drill it and retapped. No matter what you do an old trick is to liberally coat the cutting surface of the tool with grease to prevent chips from entering the engine.

I'll try that, thanks for the input, I'm a total dumbass and I need all the help I can get.
