Annoying Ebay Item?

[Mecoubsshottee]

I bought a Knock Sensor from ebay "xpress auto parts" was the seller.

It was a great price, only around $20 with free shipping compared to Honda's $120 sensor. Well I guess it's true when they say you get what you pay for.

This is what happened when I tightened the new KS to 23 ft/lb on the torque ratchet. What you're looking at is what is left of the sensor. The threads are supposed to be where the gaping hole in in the middle.

Now the threads are stuck in my block where the knock sensor is supposed to bolt up. I have no idea what to do except take out the motor or IM. ughhhh
