Looking for Pics of Coolant Temp Sensors on TPI Heads

Hey guys... can you get me a pic of the coolant temp sensor, and coolant temp switch... one is located at the front of the Drivers side cylinder head, and the other at the rear of the passenger side cylinder head.

I would prefer to see them on '89 & Up... just in case they changed them.

Thanks,
Dave

So would this be the one that goes on the Drivers Side front... or Passenger Side Rear. Thanks! Dave

where is it SUPPOSED to go? fine question, mine is in the driver side. in my passenger side is the sensor for my autometer guage and the rest of the coolant sensors (cold start and coolant temp) are in the front of the intake manifold.

Re: Looking for Pics of Coolant Temp Sensors on TPI Heads

See, that's my challenge... From what I can tell... according to the service manual... the Pass Rear is the 'Coolant Fan Switch' (what you have pictured here)... and the Drivers Side front... is the 'Coolant Temperature Sender' which uses a button style end of the sensor... and sends the temp reading to the gauge. I'm just trying to locate both proper sensors... and then wires. Thanks for any addt'l pics... (A Stock Car may be a bit better for this pic if possible). Dave

Maybe I'm missing something ... didnt you just answer your own question? Are you trying to find replacements or figure out where the sensors are in the heads?
