EGR/Coolent sending unit
On a TPI, I was wondering what the sensor in the egr valve is called and where can I get one? Also I was wondering what the coolent sensor in the head is called, it is in the drivers side head.

Re: EGR/Coolent sending unit
the driver side head is the dash coolant sensor. the coolant sensor in front of the block is for the computer. the coolant sensor on the passenger side block is the fan coolant switch. and theres EGR temp switch sensor behind the distributor. theres a EGR solenoid that allows vacuum to the egr on the passenger side by the distributor. i think thats all, could be wrong

Re: EGR/Coolent sending unit
Looking for the coolent temp sensor in the driver side head and could not find it on Autozones website. I do not know what it looks like since mine was broken off when I got the engine. Could someone do me a favor and post a picture?

Thanks
