Loose ignition coils (Page 2/2) Gizmo0816 AUG 19, 05:17 PM quote Originally posted by freakiero: Thank you, I didn't realize that at first. There are square holes in the pad which I'm guessing are meant to fit carriage bolts from the factory. The hardware must have changed from a previous owner or at a shop, cause it was a mess. I put in some new nuts and bolts that actually fit and discovered that my crankshaft sensor is roughed up, so looks like that ended up being responsible for my engine problem. Thank you everyone for the help! How did you get the pad out if I may ask? I saw that it could come off, but I never figured it out because mine refuses to come loose. freakiero AUG 20, 05:18 PM quote Originally posted by Gizmo0816: How did you get the pad out if I may ask?

Once you take those out, the crankshaft sensor is on the back of the bracket going inside of the block. You have to pull hard and maybe twist but it pulls it straight out.
