Crankshaft positioning sensor issues
Okay I'm having some serious crankshaft positioning sensor issues. I got it all tore apart to make it easier to get to, unbolted the old sensor and started to wiggle it out it got part way. It got stuck so I sprayed it and let it sit while I was at lunch came back worked on his a little bit more. It started to pull it out and I thought I had it until it snapped off. The magnet sensor part was still in there a little bit the rest of the sensor I have out I went to touch the magnet sensor to try to see if I could get something around it to finish prying it off and when that didn't work I searched the forums found people were tapping it with a screw pulling it out, as soon as I tried to get it drilled out to put a screw in it it's fell through and I can't see it now. What is my next step in getting this fixed so I don't screw this up anymore than it already is.

I recommend you drain your oil and see if you get any debris. If you have a borescope you could go in from the oil drain hole and see if you can find the CPS part.
If it's in there, then you can either drive around with it for the rest of the time you own the truck, or, drop the pan and remove it.
Unlikely to hurt anything if it's sitting at the bottom of your oil pan. Oil pump pickup has a screen.
