    TW (coolant temp) sensor

    What size socket fits the coolant temperature sensor on the top thermostat housing on the EFI engine (white clip, not green)? I know it's bigger than 19mm.

    Also, does $30 sound like a good price for a new sensor? I didn't see it on the Majestic site.

    Thanks
    Mike

    Does the oxygen sensor need the same size?

    I forgot the size 22mm deep socket sounds about correct. Yeah $30 sounds about right also. Oxygen sensor, you need to use an oxygen sensor socket. It has an opening for the wires. It's alot easier with it. Maybe you can rent/loan it.

    I thought they might end up needing the same size socket so I could buy the oxygen sensor socket now and use it for the coolant sensor. Then later when I need to swap oxygen sensors I'll already have what I need.
