Re: BIG PROBLEM .... Engine Temperature Sensor?
There are 3 temp sensors.
The one for the Gauge, is on the drivers side head, towards the front. The one the computer uses to make the car run, is on the top/front of the engine by the thermo-stat, the 3rd is the one the fan uses to turn on. It is located on the passanger side, rear of the head.

Re: BIG PROBLEM .... Engine Temperature Sensor?
I replaced mine and it got the gauge back working along with kicking the electric fan on at the correct temp. I ahve a 90 5.0 TBI and it was located on the passanger side between the 6th and 8th. I had a lot of trouble getting it off as I could not find the correct wrench. 7/8th was to big and 13/16th was to small. Good luck
