2L-TE Question (Temp sensor/coolant drain plug)

[Pardy]

Yea, it was just a cracked gasket. Used some silicon to fix it, because I'm impatient and didn't want to wait for a new gasket to arrive. Haha

Yeah i Had some troubles with hoses leaking on the housing as well!

I will post some pictures of my truck once it's back on the road!

1. Block drain
2. Crank position sensor (or that's about the right location)
3. Starter main power connector
4. Temp sensor for computer (controls fueling, glow time, trans operation)

Either remove the factory sensor or drill and tap for a new one. There are small sensors available that can go in to a 1/8" NPT hole.


If you need help with parts call us.

Good luck with that thing, they can be real money pits.
