There are two coolant temp sensors. One to tell the computer that your engine is hot or cold and adjust the idle mix accordingly. The other feeds the instrument panel and the radiator fan. They are both in the thermostat housing. Make sure you replace the right one. Do it quick and you won't lose too much coolant. There was a thread on this operation a few weeks ago. Check the archives. Yours may have an O ring to replace. Good luck Roger VanTill 89 Westy "The Moose Lounge" 86 Syncro 92 Escort "The Turd" (sorry,it runs)
