Install a harmonic balancer pulley remover and remove the balancer. remove the crank sensor to the right side of the balancer. Install the sensor. tap the balancer on until you can get the bolt to grab three or four threads/ revolutions. Install the balancer until seated. Impact gun is best to do this.

Grand am se 2001 is leaking fluid on passage r
What type of fluid? Antifreeze should be readily indentifiable. As a matter of fact, so should motoroil , P/steering and transmission fluids.Brake fluid would be underneath the car at a wheel position or the left sidefirewall master cylinder location.. Sorry, It takes sight and smell to ID this fluid. Good luck, -Ned-
Ask a neigbor or mechanic to try to identify the fluid and possibly where it is coming from.
Why wont my engine fire?
check for spark...just because you hear fuel pump, may not have correct pressure...remove snorkel and artificially enrichen fuel to see if it starts
How do I manually check oil pressure
find your oil pressure switch, remove it, install a gauge and test. In some cases ( GM/Chevy ) the oil switch also has some control over the fuel pump. So jumping the relay to allow the engine to run might be necessary...
Signal lights only work intermittenly
The blinker relay is getting worn out. It's right behind the hazard lights switch. Pull off the black trim around the radio, hazard, ets, and the relay is write there. Next time the blinkers stop working hit the hazard button or hit the trim just above the hazard lights button. Mines been doing it off and on and I just hit the trim above the hazard button and they start blinking again. Never have time or remember to get a new relay.
Put new fluil pump in and ignition mogul in wont start why is gas coming out of the bladder bag
Need more details but bladder bags are mainly for race cars. Do you mean gas tank ? Does it leak when over half tank ? If so then you may have a leak in the seam of the tank or a hole. Does the car turn over but won't start ? May want to have your bypass control module checked. If the BCM is tripped the car thinks it's being stolen and will turn over but cuts of the gas pump. Replaced mine 4yrs ago and no problems since. The bypass control module HAS TO BE BRAND NEW. Cannot buy a used one since it cannot be reprogrammed.
FOG LIGHTS WONT GO OFF
Good chance the relay is staying open. try switching it with a "like" one. if not, the switch is probably bad...
