I need to install a new head temp sensor II. It seems that you can't remove the rubber bushing in the engine tin. Is there a way to remove it or do you just have to force it out like the other bushings? Do I need to remove the top tin to expose the sensor to replace it?
Thanks, Dave |

Come back to us if the car runs like crap after you replace it...
I have a 73, 1.7 and by the book, I should not need the resistor between the sensor and the ECU...But, by actual experience, my car would not run until it reaches 180 degrees... Solved the problem by putting a resistor in between the the new sensor and the brain... Yes, it was the correct part number for the 1.7... 2-OH! |

I think that there may only be one CHT out there for sale now, and it would be nice to know what the numbers are that work and the ones that dont. So, ECU number, MPS number and CHT number of you have them would be great. Rich |
