WHERE O WHERE IS THAT TEMP SENSOR?
as in the title am havin a tw@tin time tryin to find the temp sensor i have a ruff idea thats its on the drivers side but where on the engine is it? the only thing i can see is the exhaust manifold from the top and wires to the spark plugs from the bottom.
if anyone got any pics it would be great or should i get some specs lol how can it be this hard?

Forshock has you looking in the right spots.Except if your motor is an LU5 305(CFI) the CTS will be on the passeger side front of the intake(partially hidden by the alternator).

I am not sure on the carbed engines, but on my TBI there are two temp gauges. CTS located infront of the intake, and the sender for the gauge between 1-3 sparkpluggs. I think you are looking for the CTS which should be close to the waterneck on the intake.
Good luck.
