Crank position sensor

So I am going to replace my CPS due to a no spark condition and have a couple questions? Does the balancer have threaded holes in it. I have pullers but do not see the threaded holes. I am also confused by the torque spec of 111 plus 75. Can someone explain this? 111 ft-lbs plus 75 degrees?

I do not believe you have threaded holes in the balancer, but you are correct on the torque spec.

Yes their are threaded holes inside those slots, but the universal pulley kits don't usually have the correct thread bolts. You need 1/4"-28 (fine thread) x 4" long bolts.

This is the puller I use: https://www.amazon.com/Lisle-Harmonic-B ... B000P0XMKK

What they are talking about is torque and angle.
The torque is 111 ft.lbs.(use torque wrench)
After reaching the 111 ft.lbs.pull (tighten) the bolt another 75 degrees.
In other words almost 1/4 turn more.
1/4 turn would be 90 degrees.

Thank for the info. Pulley is off so now just need to put back together. Used 14-20 bolts and still worked but it felt like I was wrecking threads. Should never use again. Hope this fixes the no start condition.

CPS was the issue. Car all back together and running great so far. Only a few miles on it.
