Hello my name is Michael. I noticed you have done some work on the reluctor wheel/gear fix. Well I threw some codes, and took the crankshaft sensor off and the gear moves forward and backward. I am guessing it's not supposed to move at all. So before I have to tear into it, I just want to make sure I start off right. Will removing the front end, bumper, radiator, grill and etc. make it easier for access the the front of the motor, or will just taking the shrouds and fan off be enough? Is there any special tools I might need like a puller or anything for the cover, or pulley, or balancer? I am going to order a front cover gasket set and a new reluctor wheel, and bolts just in case since I live 900 miles away from the nearest part store. Any help will be great, if I can call you that will be even better.
Thanks for any help.
