I'm a new owner of a 1974 2.0. Does anyone have a photo of where the Cylinder Head Temperature sending unit is located on the engine? I have a center console gauge that isn't working and the gauge seems to be fine.
Thanks, Dan. |

If it's a VDO brand it looks like this. It is made to replace the crush washer under one of the spark plugs. It is usually installed on the #3 plug because that cylinder is known to run the hottest. The wire to the sender is not normal vinyl covered wire it has a braided kind of stiff covering. Where the wire attaches to the circular part of the sender it has to be bent to clear the head.
