Hi everyone,

I tried to change the exhaust pressure sensor of my 2000 ficht 175 (E175FPXSSV). Unfortunately the little tube of the sensor broke and stayed stuck in the motor. There is a lot of carbon around it and that's why it broke when I unscrewed the sensor.

I tried to pull it but it is completely stucked and I worry about pulling too hard and explode something. I also tried to spray carbon cleaner but that didn't work.

Can I use a drill to clean the place (and destroy the tube in the meantime)? Is it a problem i some pieces of metal coming from the remaining part of the sensor drop in the exhaust?

I also notice that there is a mounting symetric hole also on the port side where the sensor can be placed (there is only a screw to remove). Can I place the sensor here if I fail to clean the normal starboard place?

Waiting anxiously for your advices....

Fred
