i cant find my coolant temp sensor but when i scanned my car it said it was bad. so i bought a new one and i was wondering if any one could help me find where its located.

It is located above and to the right of the thermostat, under the Throttle body, if you are looking from the drivers side. Pull the airbox lid and hose out of the way to make it much easier.

It's kinda hidden under the throttle body and mass of small coolant lines and wires. Don't forget to drain the radiator first and use the teflon tape or sealer paste stuff. Use a deepsocket and torque it 12-17LBS. Don't over tighten it.

And if you haven't already, do the throttle body coolant line bypass while you are in there.

Good luck.
